The snow up at Balu Pass was great today. We rode down the N/NE aspect and it was good quality powder and very stable. Skinning up on the East aspect was also good powder (no surface crust). Hopefully the freezing level didn’t go too high today. Also shout out to Michael O’Farrell, after reading your MIN report this morning and seeing what BP looked like we were stoked to head up there today knowing we could still get some fresh lines, cheers.

Snow conditions were: Powder. Weather conditions were: Sunny. We rode: Mellow slopes. We avoided: Convex slopes, Sunny slopes. Riding quality was good.

Avalache Conditions: Rapid temperature rise to near zero degrees or wet surface snow.
