Skinned up hanging lake to Gin peak, trail is in good shape with a few thin creek bridges. slopes that were covered by trees kept the moist surface snow overnight while uncovered slopes firmed up and had a 1cm crust on the surface. sun affected slopes were prime terrain for wet slides and we gave these a very wide berth. steep true north-facing terrain still holds some soft powder but this was in very short sections.
