Skiff of fresh in p.lot at Shames today. Skins down at tower 8 (others did at 6). Light wind from SE ish with light snow and fog throughout the day. No whumphs or cracks today on the knolls. No avi's heard or seen but whew...it was foggy. Flat lighting for sure. Prayer flags looked hammered with tracks. So 2nd and 3rd it was for fresh lines and no slabs pulled out. Made cuts on short steep bits and nothing moved. 15 to 20 ish of recent smooey fluff over crusty damp snow made for great turns. Tot Snow depth could be nywhere from 45 ish to 80 ish depending on where ya stand. Able to get further down into the back valley to 1025 m's (not the bottom yet) pretty easily but the trenches shut ya down if ya don't use the force to navigate around them. Rode back down to tower 10 ish when clicks on the board got me walking.
