Ogden benches

<p>Good skiing above treeline on the Ogden benches. No wind effect but sun was out and temps got to near 0, sun crust on certain slopes by last lap. Didn’t dig a pit but kept to low angle and supported terrain and avoided rocky start zones. Sporty skiing through shallow snowpack back to lake. No signs of natural activity </p>
