Minimal snow coverage down low, but a widespread supportive crust/ice layer made for decent travel below Kieth's hut. Snow coverage and travel up Motel 66 was fine. Probed 120-260cm (160-180cm avg.) while walking up Anniversary Glacier. Wind affected snow had us turn around for better skiing back down the glacier towards Cerise creek.
