Comments

Rain crust present. No instabilities or naturals observed. Didn't push much above treeline, ski quality didn't seem to be as good as we approached the wind affected alpine. Winds were howling S-SW up high all day, until the forecasted switch to the N winds showed up in the afternoon. Big spindrifts off Mount Whymper all day. Zone is filling in nicely for early season.
