Skied from Muir via Paradise Glacier to road. Down to 9000 we were in gnarly whiteout conditions with horizontal blowing graupel and no slope concept. Just below the base of Anvil rock things cleared up and we got a fantastic ski down the paradise glacier on silky smooth corn thanks to an inch or so of new snow that must have come down over the past week. Best corn skiing for me in a while.
