Climbed to an alpine subpeak Northeast of Hilda peak on Saturday. Variable snow but mostly firm unfun windcrust in alpine, some powder runs to be had below treeline on Hilda ridge. No avalanche activity or concerns observed. Blue skies and no wind Saturday. Sunday we skied above Hilda hut, below treeline. Observed extreme winds s/se overnight and Sunday. Was easily able to ski cut small sluffs of wind transported snow ( 2" deep ) sitting on top of the wind crust on the convex rolls at treeline.
