Quick report
Rode the south face of Pastoral and west face of Super Bowl. Very cold when the wind was blowing, comfortable temps when it was calm. The ridge up to Pastoral was scoured bare rock. About a foot of new snow with more in protected pockets. W/NW winds actively loading lee slopes all day. No formal tests. Jumping on test slopes only produced sluffs. Observed an old skin track on the north ridge up to Super Bowl that was way out over an overhung cornice. See pic.
