rode corral 1, just in the lake Louise back country, riding in the line was great with some rock still poking out in the choke point and in the lower parts of the bowl, one group had ridden it before us a few days before. on the front side of the face we found a pretty thick crust under the fresh snow but once rounding the corner that crust went away leading to some very good riding conditions. we opted to boot up the main chute to get to the top, which had shallow snow it that made boot packing it quick and easy going up.
