Observation Subpeak

Good freeze overnight but soft enough for easy skinning. Dropped the north glacier at 11am with perfect corn skiing, smooth as can be. Descended the mother's Day couloir below the glacier down to 2350m where it got steeper and became isothermic from the morning sun. 0c at 2950m but 11c at the car at 330pm West aspect are shallow from the winters wind and are more susceptible to slab avalanches in the late afternoon. It got warm and green housed between 3-4pm which started some convective flurries. Solar aspects with less than 1m of snow were isothermic at treeline late in the afternoon. Supportive in the trees at the end of the day.
