Found good snow with few tracks at Marry’s run and off of 3rd knoll. Definitely wind loading of these aspects, but didn’t notice cohesive slabs. Stayed away from convex rolls into steep slopes. Easy to kick off sluff in steeper terrain. Crust underneath didn’t bother us and made for fast skiing. On and off snow with max rate around 1 cm/h. Strong east winds at ridge top. No wind and a bit heavier snow in valley bottom. Air temps around -2 to 0 degC. Fun day!
