Despite the cold, there were af ew of us skiing treeline to just above treeline at West Nile. Saw evidence of natural avalanches, most likely a few days old from the last storm cycle. Snow was either faceted or wind blown. Pockets of rideable powder. Stayed away from wind loaded features. A bit tracked out but still lots of mellow lines to be had.
