Left WR Snow Park at 9am to blue skies and moderate temps.  Gained the central moraine in the canyon and dug a pit facing SE at 5800'.  About 9" down was a ice/hoar layer that released the top layer after 9 hard taps from the elbow.  We weren't too precise and the top layer was still cold.  Super-fun turns on both the SE and SW aspects in the canyon.  Great base so far!  5hr. RT from car.
