Comments

-7 at the parking lot at 8am. Supportive crust to 2350m. Glacier had ok skiing on a lot of soft windslab. The crust softened up a bit for some corn skiing below 2200m.

Probe the glacier in two locations both 320cm+. Several sags in the glacier higher up and the bergschrund partially filled but easy to get around. Turned around at the schrund. Calm sunny weather all day with maybe one or two new size 1 wet loose avalanche from steep east aspects. Ski crampons very useful.
