AST 2 at Shames.
About 8 cm new snow in the past 24 hours (Feels good). Thin windslabs forming in northerly lees on North Bowl, but not enough for any size or concern. Old snow surface wet and somewhat supportive (more supportive above 1300 m). Skied North Bowl skiers right entrance and Power 8's. Skied up to 38 degree slopes. Ski quality fell apart below 1100 m as old snow became less supportive.
Dug a quick pit at the top of North Bowl on a northwest aspect. Top 80 cm of snow was wet or moist grain and did not produce any significant shear in a compression test.
