Comments

Great weather conditions. Recent activity led us to stick to lower angle mellow terrain. Snow above 1750 on N aspects had some wind blown crust buried 40-60cm down which was touchy on more loaded areas like convexities. Because of the wind switching it's hard to predict where wind loading will be so good to be vigilant everywhere. Otherwise amazing powder skiing!
