Terrain Use

to be honest felt pretty open season out there. S / sw slopes developing some pretty nice corn BTL elevations, but opted for W / NW aspects which held nice 15cm of F wind deposited snow from last cycle without appreciable windslab even off summit ridge. skiied line typically I am not comfortable skiing.
