Dropped into a SW aspect around 2100m just after 2pm hoping to ski corn. Aborted mission pretty quickly due to ski quality and potential for isothermal avalanches. Large roller balls. Coulda got there quicker but got distracted by some fun, soft snow sledding in the meadows on the way up. Checked out a polar aspect around 1650m on the way up and found a zipper crust so decided to ski in the sun instead
