Quick report

Skied the NW facing aspect of Acapulco, then sledded through Ice Palace, up Hoodoo, out Tsina drainage. No red flags on Acapulco. Snow was wind effected and almost soft above 5800' NE facing aspect; hard wind slab below 5800' on the Worthington glacier. Many recent large icefall induced avalanches observed on the slopes draining onto Hoodoo glacier; the one above Ice Palace ran well over the up/down track for typical Worthington-Hoodoo access.
