Took the splitboard out for a short half-day tour last Saturday with a couple of co-workers. We went up Big Cottonwood Canyon to the Mill D North trailhead and then buzzed up to the area known as Short Swing.
It was an excellent N facing aspect with ≈25° slope angle so we weren't too worried about any avalanche instabilities due to the 2' of new snow. The N facing aspect kept the snow light and fluffy and away from the late afternoon sun on Friday that left a stout crust on S through W facing slopes.
