Started out -3 at RPC. -5 at 2050m. HS 135 at 1950m; 165cm at 2100m (approx 30 + ve over last week). Overcast winds light from SW with moderate gusts at Balu Pass. S1 at start of day S2 - S3 as day progressed. Ski pen of approx 15 - 30 (lots of variable) with tip-dive potential on mix of settled decomposing stellars + suncrust + facets on S and SE slopes on Hospital Trees. Better consistency on E facing off Balu Pass. Lots of spindrift and sluff off steeper N slopes running natural off Cheops.
