<p>Stayed away from highest ridgelines where cornices and small wind pillows had built up over the past several days. Saw only small roller balls on sun baked slopes. Other than that our party encountered no red flags. </p>

Huge graupel mixed with Thursdays decomposing storm snow made for some fun turns though it made skinning up in places quite challenging.

Skied not quite from the ridge on an east facing steep slope and found medium density decomposing snow sometimes mixed with some huge graupel.
