Strong solar input all day but cold alpine wind kept snow on sheltered north facing aspects dry. Amazing fast cold dry pow on the glacier. Micro aspect management necessary to avoid sun crust. Witnessed another party trigger a small sz 1 wind slab on a cross loaded roll, and saw dry loose sloughing off some ski tracks on the dome (steep north facing feature). Unreal day!
