Quick Observation
We skied the Simpson burn, really good skiing to about 1600m. At 2100m HS is 230cm and there is 37cm of new snow, not bonding really well with the thick rain crust. The snow was becoming heavier in the afternoon, forming more of a slab. There was one natural size 1 out from a 40ยบ roll, and we skied cut and triggered a few really predictable small size 1 sliding on the March 24 rain crust.
