Comments
Excellent corn skiing on sunny East aspects in the morning. Snow surface was damp by noon, but underlying crust provided excellent support throughout the day.
North and northeast also holding snow but did not soften up much at all throughout the day.
Approach to Trout River Bowl was thin and frozen so we carried our skis and used crampons for ascent.
Good snow up high but access and timing are tricky!!
