Hilda Ridge

<p>Overall very stable snowpack. The powder was also quite good, with plenty of fresh snow and wind deposit on the SE-facing aspect of Hilda. We pushed higher and further into the valley, finding a fantastic open, alpine descent to lap. Conditions began and ended cool and cloudy, with a few hours of sun and warmth interrupting in the early afternoon. We also witnessed a few small avalanches give way on the cliffs to the south of us, between Parker Ridge and Mt. Athabasca. Great day. Hopefully this quality of spring skiing sticks around for a while yet.</p>
