Skied the loop around Summit Creek following the sled tracks most of the way. Temp and wind were stable all day with an average of minus 8 degrees and mild winds. Notice 2 size 1 avalanche on North facing slopes going up climbers left towards the snowfield (most likely a wind slab). Dept of snow at our highest elevation of 1600m was 280cm. The ski down was decent with up to 15 cm of dry to semi-stiff storm snow overlaying a crust. Good day in White Pass.
