Skied to the weather station, dug a pit nearby, skied down through the light trees and eventually into the low angle section of the avy path. Skiing was blower on a beautiful day. Clouds were in and out up high with a valley fog down below. Signs of wind effect were present along the ridge enforcing our decision to not dip into the back.
