Beautiful day around Log Cabin

<p>A nice day skiing at log cabin. 40cm of snow now sits on the ground at the parking lot with a supportive crust down 10 cm. Recent westerly winds have redistributed the weekends new snow at tree-line and in the alpine, where we found an average snow depth of around 1m. Some recent avalanche activity out of steep wind loaded terrain produced wind slab avalanches up to size 1.5. We found good skiing in sheltered terrain but a couple of crust facet layers in the upper 80cm of the snowpack were enough of a concern to keep us on low angle slopes.</p>
