Observations
Aside from those D1 wind slab, and dry loose: we skied powdery snow on north aspects generally sticking to mellow slope angles above treeline (well, one steeper angle for a short pitch with ease below it), but entering steep slope angles in treeline (aside from dry loose we felt comfortable with our decision to enter these steeper lines.) The one non-north aspect we skied was the East aspect of the Castle which was a touch of soft atop firm (again, this was where we cut a small wind slab loose.)
