<p>Great day at bow summit. Parking lot was not plowed, little bit of a crux getting in and out. ~30cm of snow overnight sitting on top of ~15cm from the day before. Skied the lookers right ski runs. Storm snow from the day before was starting to slab up in lee features. Loosely consolidated slabs could be seen with hand sheers down 45-50cm.
The face lookers right of flower shed snow impressively a few times through the day. We heard something sounding a little bigger and more abrupt at the end of the day but we're in the valley bottom and couldn't see if it triggered a slab in the bowl below.
