Wet and heavy day up to black tusk. Coverage on the switchbacks from rubble creek is poor. Had to walk up 3km and down 5km. Great coverage in the meadows. Vis was poor so had to stick to small trees for the descent. Snow was clumpy and heavy all the way up to 2000m. There was even a light rain crust forming as it was wet snow/rain all the way up.
