Inclined S aspects were seeing significant solar effect by 1030am and will have a crust. Wind effect was visually apparent above ~1900m. Some wind effect felt in Lazyboy basin slopes (likely amplified by topography) and SW wind transport observed at alpine ridgetops. Quick pit on 40degree NW slope resulted in no observable movement on layers apart from recent storm snow. Snowpack right side up down to approximately 120cm (did not dig further). Ski cuts on convexities produced nil results. Protected snow at and below tree line was immensely enjoyable, ski penetration of 25cms.
