Comments
Went up from hummingbird to ski Black Queen. Pretty large hoar up on the NW aspect of that ridge.
Snow was incredible on the northeast. Did a second lap on a more south facing aspect around 1 pm and the sun had warmed it up to spring skiing.
The return on White Queen was relatively wind affected but the sun/warmth softened/made the ~10cm of snow heavier on top of dense but pliable crust.
