A good skin out of the resort, quite a lot of variable wind loading all the way out to the far end of the highway bowel ridge. Dropped into Montana and kept finding wind slab pockets till the more mellow dense trees.
Skinned up the NST road to holy cow to see what that was doing. Picture is the skiers right face above the entrance. Booted up there to try pop it and the whole thing remotely triggered from me stomping into my skis (just the new super soft wind slab, no stepping down). Put a few more ski cuts in on the skiers left side which wasn’t seeing the loading and was stable. Dropping in and the skiing was really good until it opened up and began getting a little wet and heavy but still sweet !!
Looking up at the venue began to see numerous small naturals triggering from what looked like tree bombs from the wind.
Also some beginnings of wet loose entraining mass down lower on the steeper gradients.
