Quick report

Toured into Bullion Basin, Laps in Cement Basin, and Out Ted's Buttress. Breezy day, snow being transported at ridge top. Evidence of wind scouring, firm deposits just below ridgeline on select leeward slopes, and cornices. Not a ton of formal obs, just some quick hand pits. Snowpack felt generally right side up everywhere except the most direct south face aspects. The direct south facing aspect appeared to have a strong-over-weak layer a very rough 12" down. No evidence of avalanches or sluffing, storm snow seemed to be bonding well, and made for great skiing. Sorry for the lack of any more formal ob/late in the day submission, hope this is better than nothing.
