Quick report
Despite the fairly recent slab noted in this observation, things were locked in and extremely stable. Ski penetration around 6" maximum. I skied steep open slopes with no reactivity. Quality was great above 4800', below I started noticing the crust. The overnight cooling and decrease in precipitation rate contributed to my impression of a stable snow pack. Visibility was challenging to start, improved for a few hours, then went to full on white room as the snow started to fall at little after 1400.

Freshish debris from slab that looked like it pulled out overnight before things cooled and set up. Crown estimated at 1-2', 50 yards wide. Debris looked like it did some gouging on the way down.
