Toured up from ski resort boundary around far side of east peak. Skied down a north ridge, dug full profile in sheltered tree line terrain on Northwest aspect. HS: 111 CTM16, CTH 21 down 11 RP. Repeating results on potential surface hoar layer. Snowpack appears to be rounding out. Trump crust down 86. Good walk, mediocre skiing at best with 3-5 pow turns.
