Quick report

Heavy, solar impacted, refrozen on S/SW aspects in the morning. Afternoon turned to heavy, deep, hot pow. Went to go ski the chutes into lake basin and bailed. Went below to collected beta for another day and watched a wet loose release into one of the paths we had been looking at from above and had decided not to ski. Travel was slow but that was mainly because of how hot out it was. There are still some large cornices that have not fallen yet.
