Instability Comment
<p>Did not note any lingering facets above the solar crusts and tests/test slopes showed a good bond to these mf crusts. Weaknesses noted a few cm above the crust and also 30cm down. Only minor cracking on test slopes. </p> <p>We did not note much wind transport in SE Cardiff bowl or along the Flagstaff ridge. See notes above and compare weather stations - there are sure to be sensitive soft slabs of wind drifted snow in more exposed terrain.</p>

Excellent skiing. Healthy trail breaking.
