Windslabs and loose wet to sz 2.0 from skier traffic or temperatures esp near rocks and esp on SW and SE asp. Some whumpfing and settlements from 2200m and up with 15-20 new over a sun crust over facets on SSW asp in particular. Windslabs to 50cm but most holding in place with mild morning temps. Refreeze last night kept a lid on things, but a warm clear day or more mild temps and precipitation could cause another extensive cycle.</p>
