Pretty good conditions at tunnel creek to home run up top. Snow seems well consolidated, wind affected around sunny side but protected on home run and beyond amazing. Slopes that would have been in the sun a couple of days ago slightly crusty but still enjoyable. Main issues for tunnel are the following: 1) still tons of alderbashing at the base of home run, will need tons more snow 2) the ski out (and in) has tons of only partially buried rocks, particularly right around the downed tree that has a narrow passage through it. We removed a couple of human head sized rocks but quite a few remain.
