Skied the Cokely zone with an ACCVI group. We shared the mountain with several other touring groups and a lot of snowmobilers on the old ski runs. Moderate ridge top winds from the SW during the day but signs of strong recent winds from the SW left alpine slopes very wind scoured and loaded depending on aspect outside of sheltered terrain. In sheltered terrain the low density snow skied great. Ski penetration 30cm, boot penetration 50cm+. By mid afternoon the morning sun had been replaced by cloud and light snowfall began by 1:30pm. In the afternoon below 1400m the snow was becoming heavy and wet. *Note* Contrary to the name, no drugs were consumed during this ACCVI club trip
