Angus creek

<p>Ski up angus creek today. Wet/rain affected snow up until around 1600m then accumulations of 10cm+ overnight above 1700m. Total storm snow varied from 15-40cm, light to moderate S winds moving some snow around in exposed areas. Around 2150m wind effect became more evident. Snowed about S1/S-1 all day. We turned around at 2300m, ~100m below ridge line in the last tree stand. We saw a recent wind slab that released at ridge line 20-50cm deep, propagating over 200m across slope (see pics) and running down to the usual turn around point. Turned around and enjoyed some good turns down a mellow tree run. No signs of whumphing or shooting cracks during the day.</p>
