Quick Observation

Toured to the summit of Little Sifton and skied to the highway through the northernmost gulley. Noticed buried sun crust ~6cm deep in some areas on the way up Grizzly shoulder. Snow on the E face of Little Sifton was wind compacted, but with no cracking or whumpfing. Riding conditions were good from the summit, and better from the col and onto the glacier and main run. It was getting a bit tracked out in the gulley towards the end, but snow conditions were still soft enough to manage an OK ride out.
