None reported

The breakable crust of a few days ago turned into a mostly supportable crust. Lots of runnels on the snow surface present from last storm cycle. The tranquility of the mountains was certainly interrupted by the chatter of our skis trying to hold an edge on the inclined ice rink.

Found the occasional inconsequential wind slab on the skin track.

Another D2 slide that most likely slid during the last storm.
