<p>Rode trees in two areas of powder valley - the eastward slope when the trail turns to the plateau, and the south-eastward slope accessed by heading northwest where the trail reaches the plateau. The former had more evidence of hazard (poorly bonded wind slab, shooting cracks) while the latter seemed more stable (less crossloading from these N winds).</p>
