Homogeneous powder to base. Ski pen was ~15-30 cm. Snow was beginning to become more cohesive than powder. No wind effect or slabs seen. I stayed low and didn’t climb beyond the first bench. The creek is still running, and the highway approach (and log crossing) is faster than the mildly rambling skin track. Photo 1 view towards Hwy 93 & Mt. Whymper Photo 2 view straight up along the fire break.
