A great day of skiing on Mt Ward. Up to 40cm over the April 2nd Crust. This old crust is up to 20cm thick, even on polar aspects. Some evidence of recent dry loose during the storm but no slab characteristics to be found. The wind was picking up at ridgecrest in the afternoon and beginning to transport some snow. Overall great conditions, N slopes are on in the CNP!!!
