Wow, this snow is holding up fantastically! Found really stable powder which did ride a little slow. Only concern was ballbearing type snow about 10" down which would cause the shovel test to fail sproadically with about 2 from elbow. No propagation noted.
1st tracks 2000ft down a couloir was a wonderful way to start the day. Attitude re-adjustment complete.
Thanks to Rob for answering my late call for duty last night. Started at 6am, back at work for 10:15.
Pictures and a video to follow.
Only bad thing about a dawn patrol is when conditions are so good its so hard to leave...VERY happy though!
