SE Hills, Tablelands

Yesterdays warm weather has cause a pretty widespread temperature/rain crust. 1-5 cm thick, from supportive in boots, to very fine, maybe a little catchy on skis. At 450m, on E side of “The Knob”, we found good skiing, and a stable snowpack. At lower elevations in the tablelands, things are pretty locked in, with a much harder and thicker crust. Dunlops were a preferred mode of travel. We observed 2 recent large slab avalanches in the Trout River Bowl. Likely triggered by Yesterdays warm weather, or possible cornice failure.
