Circumnavigated Spearhead Mt.

East col was cool and variable

Spearhead GL had hard wind pressed snow - powder. Watched a skier ski steep over a convex roll with only minor sluffing

Stairmaster’s top 10cm was becoming wet due to the sun and felt warm in the sun

Phalanx GL had variable snow, hard wind presses snow - powder mostly right side up. Felt cool skiing down.

2: new storm snow slid on sun crust (?) 20m wide, 150-200m
