Paddy's Peak

We sledded up into Paddy's Creek to ride the lakeside couloir. The road has melted and re-frozen and travel conditions are rugged. The snow on the glacier is wind pressed but decent ski quality (5 cm wind pressed snow). The lakeside couloir was variable, with a lot of hard wind battered surfaces to keep you on your toes. Winds today were moderate from the south, but there was little snow available for transport. Your best bet for skiing up there will be the large glacier ramps and sneaky north-facing couloirs where the snow remains unaffected by the wind.
