<p>Wind pillows abound. Sensitive to skies weight. Most slide paths ran but now there is a wind slab that can pop off and perhaps push you around.</p>

Wind slab can be manageable but will be increasing as long as the wind is blowing.

<p>Fresh wind slab.</p> <p>Possible deep slab running on the early season facets but not likely.</p>

The greatest snow on earth is now just a wind slab. Dense snow is still skiing well but not like it has been.
