Rode some north aspects south of Bridal Lake. Some wind transported snow at the top of Lightning Strike Ridge on the WNW aspect which made getting to the top very challenging. Snow is heavy but good on the northern aspects.
Weather
Few flurries punctuated by sunny periods throughout the day.
Snowpack
West faces had significant pinwheels and thick crust from 1800-2000m. East and northeast aspects still had heavy powder with no crust. Some crust on the west ish face of Baldy but still fun skiing.
