Snow Conditions
hard, windAffected, crusty

Lots of 7+ day old wind slabs evident on east facing slopes. Partial cornice falls as well, but did not appear to be triggering anything deeper. We walked around on bullet proof icy conditions, at times skis were entirely unnecessary. No fun skiing was had, but cool to explore some new mountains.
