Comments

Great touring day with beautiful weather, inversion, but wind was chilly but extremely chilly in shade...frost nip temps on any exposed skin.

Everywhere was wind affected in alpine. Variable conditions, bulletproof in most areas. Some areas had ok little pockets of some what unaffected snow but not a good ski day, but beautiful to explore.

Down in the trees was good skiing conditions but shortlived.
