<p>Midpack is supportive and holding up well. The skiing was pretty good on east aspects where when you are protected from the wind. We were skiing a low angle bench and remote triggered a size one slab avalanche 30m below us on a convex role. Slab thickness was 40cm, this layer was giving easy hand shears. Lots of whumpfing in the meadows as well.</p>
