Skied up Healy Creek to the bridge above the Campsite then headed up to Simpson Pass. Then over towards Twin Cairns (passed to the East of Twin Cairns) then across to the top of the Wawa chair. Took the Sunshine ski out. Best travel was staying in the trees and on tracks where possible. 8 cm of storm snow covered 30 cm of faceted sno so easy to sink through to rocks below surface. 30km winds in the afternoon so some snow transport happening. No signs of avalanche activity.
