Took the long walk to the back of the valley. Avoided the large avalanche paths due to overhead hazard and reports that ski conditions in them were terrible. Travel was easy with skin track/snowshoe path all the way to the end of the valley. Snow was significantly better at the back of the valley. No signs of avalanches in that area, surprisingly. Steered clear of anything steep, any convex rolls or unsupported slopes. Some sign of wind slab developing though it wasnt windy on Sunday. Was a lot of walking for about 10 turns.
