Whumpfing and slabs

Eddy Van Der Kloot, Wednesday 23rd October, 2024 9:33PM
<p>Skied a few laps off the N side of Paul Ridge. Heard and felt several substantial whumpfs while trailbreaking, which kept us away from any steeper terrain. We weren't able to get anything to move jumping on a few steeper rollovers though. Wind effect and wind slab were prevalent throughout the area. There was evidence of a decent natural cycle yesterday, with several storm/wind slabs up to sz1.5 observed in steeper (40+ degree) terrain. </p>
