Skied off the summit of Paget Peak today. Had to bootpack top 150m and then a short section on descent. Delicious turns all the way down after we put the skis back on. Avoided start zones/ convexities while ducking in and out of trees until further down the avy chute where we let it rip. All time ski quality. No whumpfs or cracks noted all day. Powder on crust above facets was common, wind blasted at the top. Some loose dry sloughing that didn't run far (we didn't ski much above 35deg) .

Weather

Very light snow al day. Light winds with mod gusts from the SW. -11c at the summit, -5c at Sherbrooke lake on exit.
