Comments
Snow was super solid full skin up. E/SE was warming by 9:30 and likely ready to ride by 10am. We dropped SE slope at 11am and found perfect corn from 10k to 8500 ft. Below that to 7500 was starting to get overly cooked and showed signs of roller balling from turns.
main risk was wet loose late morning thru afternoon and cornice breaks especially as things warm. Pic is from previous days wet loose on snake creek cirque
Be safe and keep it corny
