Up at the shoulder of Copilot (1700m) the snow was pretty good but after dropping about 200m it got really heavy and was skied out from past days skiers. Sunny, very warm (8+C), snow sticking to skins in a very bad way for much of the climb. Old point avy debris off of steep walls seen from XC area but nothing in the Skypilot area. Very consolidated it seemed but no pit dug.
