I completely agree. As far as we know breaking a mountain ash barrier is a physical impossibility for a werewolf but Scott did it. And remember the look on Derek's face when he managed to pierce the barrier. He was completely blown away. Even Deucalion was amazed by that. I don't think Derek even knew it was possible and being born a werewolf in a family of them I'm sure he knows a thing or two about their strengths and weaknesses.
