Second day at Hilda/Destiny's this weekend. Relatively significant wind effect overnight on Saturday that created widespread wind slabs in the alpine on S/SE aspects. Thin solar crust was found on isolated S aspects on Hilda ridge. However, there was still great, non-wind affected snow to be found in gully features at treeline and below treeline that offered decent protection from underlying sharks.
