Sunburnt Ridge

The trick these days is getting to where there is snow. If you can find a way, don't rush there if ski quality is what you are looking for. Clear and cool nights are building a thick crust, making for scrapy, scratchy, icy skiing in the mornings. South-facing slopes get soft by around 10 am, the shaded ones take an hour or two of sun to make them manageable, and one or two more to make it enjoyable corn skiing. Then the golden hour passes, and as the surface snow gets wet, everything gets a little sticky. Coverage on the north aspects is holding on above 1100 m, the south aspects are getting "a little sparse." No new avalanche activity from what we could see, but a bit of old loose wet and some large roller ball debris. The lakes are starting to open up as well.
