Toured up suprise pass, the day was nice with sun and cloud, as predicted by the forecast. All avalanche path from fairview and saddleback flushed during the last natural cycle. The snowpack is thin, and very wind affected. The ride down suprise pass was ok, but again very wind affected and hard packed (bulletproof conditions).
