We skied Mount Rowe from a few meters below the summit down the slide paths skiers right of the Rowe Bowl. Conditions were better than expected up high with a bit of storm snow on a firm base. The last ~300m vertical in the trees has an unpleasant breakable crust, but a good day overall. No signs of instability, other than the large crown in the Rowe Bowl that looks to have gone sometime in the last week.
