Variable conditions. Shaded and protected aspects had good skiing. Sunny aspects had dust on crust, but a supportable crust at least. Snow pack depths are variable in the area- snow pit was 170cm deep, then after skiing away from that pit, a cliff band maybe 100 yards away had snow pack depths of 20-40cm. Overall, good day of skiing all things considered.
