Comments

A decent track had been beaten in, and the WI3 pitch is in good shape, with a few easily avoidable hollows on top of the bulge. Above, most of the rock was quite dry, the 5.7 pitch in particular, save a few blobs of ice. The snow in the lower and upper bowls was a mixture of hard (P-K) wind slab and shallow facets - travel was quick for the most part, with only occasional postholing.
