Activity
Skiing

Was up at Beehive today from 8am-2pm. On our way up, snow was consistently whumping underfoot and in one of these instances, we triggered a small slide that went for 10-15 feet around the coordinates (45.34789, -111.39892) towards the top of the basin. Decided to dig a pit a bit further up the hill for some practice and discovered a weak icy layer a couple feet down, with a couple feet of minor to moderate facets 4-5 feet down.
