Rode grand daddy this morning. Backcountry is definitely getting more busy as we had 9 people up it before us do to a bit of a late start. Ski quality was okay but hard in the lower areas. From the top of the couloir to a little below the choke the the party before us sidestepped and sideslipped down, exposing many rocks at the choke and above it. No signs of instability aside from very manageable sluffing while descending. I would hold off on this one until there is more snow.
