Keeping it simple

Headed up the Lovat Scout trail. Trail is in great condition and even stepping off the skin track wasn’t awful. Ski pen off trail was 5-10cm, apart from the odd wallowy step here & there. Overall fairly supportive. Foot pen was supportive until it wasn’t and then it was up to waist deep. Noted either a crust/harder layer down 20-30cm and then garbage sugary snow below. Average depth of snow was 130cm around 2100m. Snow became more wind affected at ridgecrest with a 2-3cm surface windslab. We skied southeast facing slopes less than 30 degrees and stayed away from any overhead hazard. Skiing was soft and creamy! Weather was warm and sunny when we left the car at midday but soon the clouds rolled in and it was lightly snowing for the rest of the afternoon with light winds. No whumphing or cracking and we didn't observe any natural activity in the surrounding area. Kept it simple and still had a lovely little adventure.
