Quick Observation
Supportive crust made travel below treeline manageable. At treeline there was 10-15 cm of powder on top of the crust, which made for great skiing and kept you above the worst of the hazards. There was surface hoar developing in the morning, but we could see the crystals melting throughout the day. Transitioning without gloves and skinning in a t-shirt, so likely near 0. Most of the snow in the alpine had blown away and wind effect started around 2370 or so, firmer on the more westerly aspects.
