We could see other lines on Cheops that were significantly more crossloaded. We decided to be conservative and rode Cheops North Bowl. skinning up the ridge from Balu through the wind hammered snow we were forced into a boot pack for a section before we transitioned back and were able to skin to where we dropped in. The snow in the bowl was a bit wind affected at the top, it got much better as we headed down. Fun was had.
