Comments

The only noticeable natural activity was a slide on south aspect above Iceberg lake. Snow on the NE glacier was wind affected powder, really nice to ski with ~20cm penetration, there was more crust on the E glacier and more new snow on crust, especially in lower part. Variable conditions on the N aspects above the lake, some loaded areas with ~50cm of powder, sun crust in the trees below the lake on E aspect in the afternoon.
