Blackmore Shoulder

Ski toured up to Blackmore today.

On the way in we noticed a skier triggered soft slab on the short west facing shots as you approach the meadow. (attached is the photo - SS-R1.5-D1-I).

The main face had several natural and skier triggered dry loose slides but nothing stepped bellow the Crust. We skied the low angle section of the shoulder near the trees in search of untracked snow and would slide on the bed surface if you were a bit too heavy on your feet. 

There was virtually no wind up there today but the was some minor cornice growth on the ridge. 

I dug a test pit just below the skin track at ridge level and found 30cm of new snow that was just slabby enough to produce and ECTP22Q1 30cm down - on top of the crust. HS 170 - Slope Angle 35 - Aspect 085 - Elevation 9500.

Hope thats helpful!
