<p>Watch out for touchy wind slabs on N and NE aspects. Significant cycle from earlier this week on those aspects, although many more precariously locates for triggering.
Skied deep NW aspects to avoid the wind slabs and deep persistent slab problem. No windslabs were found on the pitches we skied.
