Went into Trident top down suspecting windslab near ridge top. Travel up the ridge was good, some sections of slippery crust under the new snow. Some wind skins and thin soft slabs building on top of a layer of fist snow on southern aspects isolated to ridge top.
Ski cut the entrance to Trident and got a small soft windslab, 20cm deep, 15m wide, running 120m. We skied bed surface for 100m and then 20-30cm of fist snow the rest of the way down.
We observed multiple small sluffs out of extreme terrain through the day and winds gradually picked up accompanied by minor snowfall towards the later afternoon. Nice temp inversion :)
