Tried to summit Markhor, turned around at 1620m. Outside of the trees became very wind affected with hard crusts. Many wind slabs coming out when trying to bootpack higher. Skiied a decent powder slope just above treeline and then skiied to car through dense trees. Not quite filled in as I tapped several tree roots. Some fun log riding though.
