Comments
Dropped in Henderson couloir around 1:45PM today. Headwall was just starting to soften up, skied well. Lower bowl had been in the clouds for a while, it wasn’t quite corn snow, a bit firmer. Rolling clouds throughout the day prevented the alpine to warm up too much. Back side of cornices looming over Simpson gulch only started to turn moist around 1:30PM.
