Went to check out hole in the wall and ended up skiing it top to bottom. Probed over 250cm on the lower slopes and then just probed using ski pole as we went up to feel for anything weird. Felt solid in the line. Wanted to probe in the couloir itself but the relentless wind prevented that. Day started sunny and then slowly clouded over and eventually started raining as we got back to the parking lot. Stayed cold up high all day. The gusty winds made for an intense feeling boot-pack with lots of snow showers on the lower protion of the line. Didn’t see anyone else out today but did see some bear tracks on our exit that where not present in the am. Bring bear spray!
