Deep at Mammoth

~30cm of snow in the Mammoth area by the afternoon, snowing up to S2 at times. Significant wind affect scouring out the pass, but little to no affect on the N/NW facing slopes up to 1600-1700m - probably a little more affect above that. Snow skied very stable. Some minor cracking around skis in the surface snow, but generally all very unconsolidated - nothing felt slabby, nothing really felt like it wanted to move. On steep rolls or gully sidewalls we could kick off loose dry sluffs that would entrain ~15cm and run until the angle relaxed. We kicked off a few soft slabs at the top of the pass where wind had built them on the lees of big steep rolls, up to 40cm deep, 3m wide. Very good light and dry powder skiing.
