Quick report

Toured from trailhead to top of Swan Slide. Good skiing to the bottom of the line, although it is dust on crust lower down.

Snowpack

Skied west facing terrain, found up to a foot of new, right side up snow on top of a thick crust. New snow on solar aspects was getting sticky by 2pm but we didn’t observe any instability.
