Quick Observation

Skied two laps on Gin down to Rainbow Lake and another down a moderate to steeper runnel down to Hanging Lake. Skied mellowest line down Gin, but did go down some small rollovers down low on Gin as well as our run down to Hanging Lake. Could see the crowns and debris on Rainbow. Also saw one or two crowns on steeper terrain on the slope down to Hanging Lake (30-40cm crowns, so surface slab? Looked size 1ish). No whumphing or cracking, very soft surface snow wherever we went, so little recent wind affect. Could feel a crust about a metre down; presumably the rain crust. At times could feel another layer about 50cm down. While we managed terrain, feeling now like maybe we pushed it too much given what happened yesterday in the 'hood.
