Shames

<p>Up to 40cm of coastal powder over the last 24 hours above 1100m with minimal wind affect. Lots of pinwheeling and loose wet out of steep terrain but no slab avalanches visible when visibility was ok. Skied northwest treeline terrain 1200m-1100m (3rd Knowl and Mary's) and south below treeline (ski hill) down to 700m. Snow on the south aspect was sloppy and moist by ski out at 12pm while northwest terrain was fun on big skis. Wouldn't want to get 2nd tracks...</p>
