Toured up to Whirlwind from the K&C hut, skied whirlwind, the south summit of Fissile and a short section of Overlord. Dug a quick put on fissile, at 2200m storm snow bonding well with snow below. November crust 90 cm down and decomposing. Facets on the crust were starting to round, but likely that this location is not indicative of what’s happening in the rest of the region. 3-5mm surface present at midday.
