Spent 2 nights camping in the Skoki Valley. Boot packed up Fossil, Skoki, Packer’s Pass Peak, and Heather Ridge. Found extensive faceting, with planar shears on hand tests. Generally kept our snow travel less than 30 degrees, opting instead to bootpack wind blasted scree on W aspects. No recent avalanches observed.
