Good ski conditions off the top of McArthur all the way to around 2400m. There was a large cornice failure pulling rock away with it from 24hrs+. We attempting cutting a smaller adjacent cornice but that one was stubborn and glued on. We were able to carve away some smaller sections which produced no results on the slope below. The ski quality was good and the best of the trip.
