The crust ended as we left the road  :)
Wind affected up top with deep snow in the trees.

We saw "you" through binoculars from Paradise, coming down.  Nice!
I skied Pan Face, glorious day, Sun softened snow, the Drifters kept me up on top of the thin sun crust.  It was one of those perfect days.  I talked to a guy who rode down from Muir in amazing powder.  Saw 3 guys who had just skied to the bridge.  I was jealous, but not complaining.
