<p>Today we Skied at Ashman. 10-15 cm of new low density snow sits atop 30-40 cm of buried windslab at treeline and above. We did multiple informal tests to gauge the reactivity of the buried windslab (hand shear, ski cutting representative slopes, digging) before we dropped into the north side of the ridge. You could still fell windslab the first few turns off the ridge but the snow quickly became soft and made for excellent ski quality to valley bottom. We chose supported lines and stayed away from convexities. we observed no new avalanches. </p>
