Great day at Big Tree. Vision extremely limited on way up, didn't bother going all the way to the peak. Visibility also made it tricky to see where we wanted to come down so we ended up skiing down close to our skin track. Cut blocks didn't have quite enough snow on them, made for a tricky time and a bit of a hike. In the trees the snow was boot deep, light powder, in the open lower down, starting to get wet and heavier.
