Wind effect and ice

Location Angel
Elevation & Aspect Elevation not provided / Northeast
Mode of Travel Skiing/Snowboarding

Observation Details

Wind transported snow was accumulating in unconsolidated drifts. Some soft slabs and slough, but very little wind slabs forming. That being said, that unconsolidated snow is sitting in top of bulletproof ice so skiing was variable and hard to recommend.
