Nice day for a tour

Calm and clear day so we saw a whole lot of terrain on the East side of White Pass. Any avalanche debris we saw looked to be from the weekend or earlier. There is evidence of a previous avalanche cycle where steep south slopes in the alpine warmed previously, but temps stayed below zero today. We skinned up to a col at the back of the Big Y looking south into Big Blue. We found good fun skiing on the northeast aspect, consistent and fast on soft snow wind pressed snow that is very carvable between 1900 m and 1600 m. In this NE alpine bowl at 1800 m we dug a test profile - there was 200 cm average snowpack and we had no significant results.
