Outstanding conditions on the Easton.  JCR and I had ear to ear smiles.  Route, weather, and snow conditions were identical to Amar's trip report from the previous week with a few exceptions.  We had to boot the first 1.5 miles or so (maybe we did not know the super secret route?)  Minimal crevasse danger, but a couple of them lower down on the Easton directly on prime ski ground were beginning to open up.  Sastrugi is forming from the summit down about 750'  Making for a few intersting turns off the summit.   Below that we had 1000's vert of sweet, sweet, dreamy corn. I wish I could figure out how to post pict's on this site as they would be worth a thousand words.
