Did one solo lap up to Muir today and rode back down the snowfield. Whiteout until Panorama Point, sunny with a slight breeze above that. The snow from the car to Panorama Point was very nice, the snow above that was very wind affected, as usual this year, a bit crispy but good pockets of powder were numerous. Any snowboarders out there that don't splitboard, don't bother with snow shoes, as there is a gnarly boot packed trail all the way up.
Off to better places tomorrow!

Cheers.
