Checked out the dark side around the Dome. Started out sunny and warm at the hill at 4 degC, by noon on the Dome it was moderately windy with some flurries at 0degC. Nothing substantial. By the time we were at Dark Side, snow and wind had died down. Dark Side was edgeable crust with some pockets soft snow. Tons of debris from cornice falls off the dome. Zymbuk-1 looked crusty but no debris. Zymbuk-2 had debris, and Zymbuk-3 appeared to have ripped to ground. Didn’t see any signs of recent avalanche. Hit Pollywood on way back. Soft crust up top, nice corn down low. Sun had come out again. Fun day!
