Quick Observation

High winds at ridge top strong enough to blow you off your feet. Significant transport created soft slabs in excess of 30cm that propagated and moved easily. Shooting cracks were seen. The hazard does not accurately depict the risk on many aspects at and above treeline in this area. Skied a south aspect but stuck to open trees. A sun crust was present
