We took a nice mellow tour towards the ramp keeping things moderate. We had some nice skiing on corn and some heavy powder where winds had transported snow. We were headed back to the lot by 1:15pm and snow was very isothermic in the meadows below false peak. We also experienced multiple large collapses with cracks propagating down in the meadows and in trees on our exit. Winds were stronger than expected throughout the day, but temps remained very warm.
