Headed up to the basin that leads to the toe of the Paradise Glacier.  Found a slope with a few inches of good wind transported/buffed powder and lapped that several times.  Lower elevations on the way back were mostly good spring like conditions with a little bit of unpleasant crust.  Much better than expected.
Good choice and very nice first  picture !

Thanks for the report. It looks great up there!
