Comments
We skied off Emerald Peak. We approached via the Hamilton Lake summer trail then climbed up towards the ridge.
Snow was supportive. High winds in the alpine, but nice snow in protected areas. We avoided thin snow areas. The skiing at treeline was incredible and a bit heavier below treeline
