"Easy does it" pow day at the best lift accessed terrain in the PNW. First tracks down Powder Bowl, Niagaras to the road, and N face of the King off Southback. Oh joy. Raincrust was felt now and then. 1-2' of dry snow and smiles all around. We saw patrollers measuring a 75cm deep, avy controlled soft slab on N/NE windloaded aspect at approx. 6600 ft.
