Pulpit 1 was pretty good! Hector lake was wetttt to cross, gloppy skins to follow. We opted to ride the S aspect for first run, to avoid the lee aspects and WS. Still lots of wind effect, some wind/ storm slab and sluff but nothing propagated. Second run rode the E aspect, much softer riding and great pillows! Surprise with the temps at 0, strong winds out of the West. Ended the day with a classic Rockies bushwhack back to the lake.
