Pocket Hunting

<p>Core Lodge was it's usually windy self today. We saw westerly winds transporting snow onto East to North facing slopes. As a result there were isolated pockets of wind slab below ridge crests that we stayed mindful of. But the small pockets we tested, with sleds, didn't budge. So we felt comfortable riding in big open tree line slopes where we could find some soft dry snow left over from the weekend. </p>
