Large loose wet cycle on S-SW facing aspects near Ghost Peak across the previous couple of days. As it was another scorcher, we summited Ghost peak by 9am pre warming. Thin sun crust over 30-40cm of sugary facets above 2100. Another thicker ice crust sat below this with some larger (~4m) facets below that. Last 60m vert was scoured. Bit of a grovel up and variable skiing down. Large surface hoar development in tree line.
