General Conditions

Good conditions for crampons up, 2-6 am.  Ski down West Face:  Top of drop in was sparse with many rocks showing.  Best bet is to boot down 100 feet or so and then ski from there. Snow softened around 11 am; center of West Face still hosted good turns; better snow on skiers right bowl before Hidden Valley; East facing slopes wet and heavy by noon; watch for rock fall in center of West Face
