WA Cascades West Slopes South (Mt Rainier)

2-4" fresh soggy snow to ski on over more snow and a thin saturated crust. Heavy, but perfectly skiable - just don't fall or auger in. 5-6k'
I was surprised how poorly Friday's and Saturday's new snow bonded to last weeks snow. Most of the steeper (40 degrees or more) slopes had point release pin-wheel festivals.

Ha! Glad to see someone is brave enough to venture beyond the ski areas!
