Taylor Lake

Good fast travel up to Taylor lake on the summer trail led to approximately 25 cm recent HST (tapering with elevation) overlying a variety of storm interfaces. This new snow had formed new wind slabs near ridgetop that were only reactive in steep terrain to size 1. Profile dug showed hard RP shears down 85 cm on 1mm facets (North, 2550m, HS = 400+cm).
Excellent ski quality.
