Ogden bench

Super fun day out at Ogden bench. Was busy, about 20-30 people out but not that many fully gained the bench. Snow is definitely a little wind affected but still good skiing to be had. The most obvious ski areas are definitely starting to get tracked out. The top of the snowpack has a very supportive layer covered by 5-10 cm of somewhat consolidated pow. Any quick tests with poles/hands resulted in no slab formed. However, one member of our party did make very small shallow slab slides on the supportive layer on two of his turns (see photo), but there was no further triggering or any propagation from this.
