Published: Feb 27th, 2025Mobius - Tetrahedrons
Toured in from the tetrahedron park entrance lower lot. Skin track on the way to Edwards cabin made for faster travel, after that we had to break trail through the 40cm of fresh, dry powder. Made for arduous travel conditions.
Skiied E shoulder of raven dance peak and then up and down Mobius NW slopes (didn't have time to get to Tetrahedron). Got cliffed out three times around 1200m getting back into the valley but eventually made it down to champman lake. Very long day to skin out from there to the parking lot.

Panther Snow Conditions
<p>We did a 2am start and dropped into a pretty big couloir at 9am. Everything was still cold and the snow from yesterday was light and dry. Underneath was a breakable crust from snowline (500m) to about 1000m. From here on the crust ranged from breakable in shade to slick supportive ice in areas that had sun yesterday. Above 1000m we observed widespread 1cm surface hoar crystals.
Very large deep slab avalanches that likely released during last week's rain event were widespread in the area around Panther Mtn. Their frozen debris fields made travel challenging.
The snow in the couloir was loose and dry and had filled in to about 40cm deep due to sluffing from the walls. No wind slab/affect observed. The fresh snow bonded well to the underlying crust on hand pull tests and ski cutting @ 9am.</p>

Tet Park
<p>Skinning up in the morning was hideous due to the freezing rain crust under what was then about 15cm fresh dry powder, side hilling was impossible without some serious stomping. Skinning got better throughout the day as more snow accumulated.
Cold, dry, low density powder fell hard all day long without a single break. By the time we headed out it had accumulated to 30+cm above the crust around 1500m.
We skied a bunch of different terrain. Lots of dry loose sluffing in steep terrain but very manageable. Some small natural dry loose activity started to pop up as the day progressed.
It was snowing almost down to sea level with accumulations of about 15cm @ 500m, accumulation lowering with elevation until 100m where it stopped. It was snowing hard when we left and I imagine much more will have fallen by the morning.
Not much for wind slab from the previous snowfall since the freezing rain which may have either mostly missed the Tet or gotten completely wind scoured from the faces we skied. It was just dry powder on a supportive ice crust wherever we went. The last run of the day was amazing with 30-40cm dry pow.</p>

Tetrahedron
<p>Saw a 400m wide size 2.5 that ran full path down mellow slopes and then over a cliff. It fractured across multiple start zones of varying slope angles and stepped down in a couple spots to deeper layers. It appeared to be a 1-2ft thick crown and ran around 2 pm when the sun poked out. It was loud! It was too foggy for a decent picture.
The snow we skied was heavy and wet. It was touchy in the 1300-1400m band with slabs moving easily but overall manageable. The riding quality was higher than expected. Snowpack is rain saturated to 1150m.</p>
