Comments
Stuck mainly to N/E facing aspects. Sluff management on steeper slopes, and dry snow on a supportive crust all the way down to the bottom of Spearhucker. Cautionary note for Spearhead Lake - my ski poles punched through way further than expected a couple times; felt safer sticking to the banks.
