Snow Conditions

Amazing conditions and beautiful views. Lots of fresh snow that seemed well bonded to a harder crust. No signs of instability and no signs of windslab. Higher up on Black Tusk did look more wind affected but there was to much cloud to go higher anyway. We were able to start skinning at around 1350m and ski down to about the same place.
