From 2000m to 1800m E aspect of brandywine ridge (in the photo) it was blower pow. Wind loaded on E and SE aspects but didn't have any success trying to release a slab ski cutting some small pockets where we wanted to ski. There was a strong wind coming from the E/NE. From 1800m down to 1600m was still very skiable, filled in by the wind, but a crust had started to form so skiing was a bit punchy. From 1600m to 1400m was a thick crust with 1-4cm of very light dry powder ontop.
