We went up Fissile and skied Banana chute, the top of the line was wind affected but the snow becomes better mid line. No signs of instability but still cautious. We had a look at NW Face, gathered couple of info : the top entrance had a small cornice, it is possible to enter the line on the side of it, there is a big crown mid face from an old slide, still lot of debris, recent winds really affected the top of the face, we didn't ski it. Crampons were necessary for the bootpack.
