Quick report

Conditions seemed very stable today, despite the warmth and sun, didn’t even observe any roller balls though there was isolated rockfall occurring. Snow surface froze well overnight, all other skiers appeared to be bootpacking with crampons or lesser traction devices. I was able to make the crater rim on skis using ski crampons. Skied down at noon and had decent corn for 2000’. Lower elevations are melting out extraordinarily quickly. Need to walk 3 miles from Marble Mount before getting to consistent snow

Appeared to be a wet loose stemming from cliff warming. Not particularly near traditional ski routes.
