Fantastic skiing on the North face of Purple Mound. Tons of slides from the prev days on the Solar aspects around Unity, Purple, Wolverine ridge etc. See photos. 10cm of fresh on top of a surpassingly supportive snow pack.

Traversed across many debris fields. One smaller path we had to traverse across was still loaded
