Comments

Crusty and heavy snow beside the skin track on the way up (beside the gully) at 11 AM. Skin track was very icy as you got higher - we gave up going any higher before we broke treeline.

Skiing down at 1230 was surprisingly good snow in shaded areas where the sun hasn’t hit yet.

-5 degrees at the parking lot in the morning at 1030 and +2 when we left at around 2:00.
