Comments
We skied pulpit 1&2 was cloudy all morning but as we reach the top of pulpit 1 we poked out on top of the cloud layers and it was
beautiful. -14 C at the car at 8am was warm at the valley bottom but didn't take a temp. -15C at the top of pulpit 1 at roughly 10am and -9c at the car at about 2pm. On the south aspect of pulpit 1 we observed a crust on steep solar slopes/features up to 2cms thick (see pic). No wumpfing or other signs of instability on the slopes we were on. However noticed some activity on solar aspects of bow peak and pulpit peak (see photos). Saw some developing surface hoar on most slopes/aspects
