Comments
We spent a couple of nights at Hišimy̓awiƛ. Stormy, whiteout conditions on Tuesday, good skiing in the trees though. Wednesday the sun came out and the skiing was great in the morning, but the sun and the rising temperatures changed the nice snow to snotty wet snow. Not that bad to ski though. We kept our skis on down through the old growth as there was quite a lot of fresh wet snow in there. Some pinwheeling but no avalanches observed.
