Bring ski crampons if you plan to be on any wind exposed ridges as there is thick ice crust out there. In wind protected areas there is about 10-20cm of nice light snow very good for skiing, but you have to hunt for those nice places... In the trees there is less new snow maybe 5cm sitting on top of a hard ice crust, so be warned that tree skiing might be tough out there. Maybe the cold temperatures will dry out this nasty crust making it brittle, but don't count on that and be prepared.
