Comments

Skinned into the Tunnel hut to stretch the legs, didn't bother trying to ski above the hut elevation at all. There was about 5cm of snow from last night - which is not nearly enough to bury the rain crust. Lower down the fresh snow was pretty wet and sticky even early this morning, but above the bottom of Home Run (approx 1400m) it was significantly drier - high quality dust on crust. Barely below freezing at the hut at noon.
