Comments

Quick run today up to the hut and then down #4. Did a little jump test at the top, snow felt solid but a 10cm wind crust on N and NE slopes. We opted to ski below the hut as skiing on crust isn't exactly fun, let alone safe. The tops of the runs look good, but be prepared to keep your tips up on the lower stretches. Base is good but more snow would be nice to fill in some of the big dips between the downed trees.
