Snow Conditions

crusty, powder, windAffected

Toured around Decker and Circle lakes. Found pockets of soft snow on all aspects down to 1800 meters. Wind and sun effect were evident in many places. Did not see surface hoar in the alpine. Winds light to moderate. Sun came in and out. Visibility wasn't good enough for bigger objectives. Coverage on the Decker N shoulder still looks pretty minimal. Entrance to body bag bowl is very rocky but doable.
