Gin Peak

Great first day of the season at gin. About 20 other people out, most stayed on the slopes above hanging lake. There were snowmobiles heard in the distance and a couple tracks across and above hanging lake but thankfully none up gin. We rode both N and W sides of gin down to rainbow lake. Powder was deep but not blower. Lots of line choices and pillows available. Temps were around -5. Exit was harrowing but was able to ski down to 1000m before boot packing the rest. No avalanches observed or visible.
