Emerald Lake Slide Path

Started early (-16c in the shade at 8:30am) and climbed until noon. Temperatures climbed quickly in the sun and were about +4c by noon. Finished climbing just above, but did not proceed into the upper slide path. Column test had m4 failure at approximately 2100m. Skiing was decent but heavy aboe 1800m and heavier below. No skier or natural activity on the slide path. However steep south facing slopes on The President had some natural activity in the morning and more by the afternoon.
