About 15cm fell overnight Snowpack warmed throughout the day and became heavy around noon below 1600m Skied up to 1709m at treeline on southern slope to investigate snowpack Multiple wind-affected layers and facets and pictured Decided to take out skin track back to sense trees and make our way down to Red Cabin Early in the day the skiing was great in the trees near the cabin Misty/ light rain led to thin crust on top of snow that was frozen the next day (Dec 9)
