A late start made the descent not so enjoyable, due to the sun. Snow was powder in dense and open trees on the ascent. Descended around 12 pm, sunny, SW slopes were incredibly sticky, dense trees were a bit drier. Some crusty sections in the trees closer to the highway. No whumpfing or drumming. Tree bombing and some pinwheeling in the afternoon.
