Quick Observation
Lots of different icy snow form were found on the grizzly shoulder uptrack. Including surface hoar (1-5mm) breaking the crust that varies from 0.2to 2cm thick. Little wind skin found in the alpine. Riding was decent from top of little sifton down to 1700 and then pretty grabby to heinous back to the parking lot. PS: Sifton S couples looked in good conditions so did Grizzly and Lone pine
