Had Nak completely to ourselves. Sun came out and the temperature rosé precipitously on the lower slopes after about 45 minutes of skinning. Ski penetration to 30cm over pretty firm/icey crust. Surface hoar forming after the sun came out. Below 1400m snow went from very dry and light to fairly dense with the increased temp and solar effects. Overall no signs of any instability with excellent deep light powder from 2000m down to 1400m. Below 1400m began striking through to rock and the alders of course were nasty.
