Did Neve-in-a-day on April 5th in prime conditions. Sunny and just above 0C till the afternoon, when clouds rolled in. Lots of groups out enjoying the conditions. Access from Red Heather was on skis from the car, but snow is rapidly melting. All paths off of the Gargoyles have gone big already. Ring Creek crossing in good shape, with lots of snow - feels like we are back to normal levels? Up on the glacier coverage was great, snow was heavy on the south sides but creamy on the North aspects. A few parties summiting/skiing Garibaldi made it look really great with powder snow up high. Lake is well frozen and exit is reasonable - booting down to the cars from 5km mark. Barrier is out.
