We traveled to the round top saddle and skied down the NE face which seemed to be better than the icy bowl westward, below the sisters. We observed lots of firm snow and heavily wind impacted snow. Traveling down the face, we had a bumpy ride ahead of us due to the scoured snow. Luckily the gully had some great wind buff. Broke some snow off the sastrugi, maybe 3in. Solar aspects that were a bit more protected from the wind looked amazing today.
