Bluebird day and plenty of powder.  Low temps kept the sun from having any noticeable effect on the south facing slopes.

Wow! Wish the weather was that nice while we were there last weekend. It puked the whole time and vis. was not the greatest. Seems you all had amazing views of the whole range and nice windblown powder from the storm we skied in. How was the stability up there? Windslabby? Looked like you both hiked up to the Blue Peak Col, correct? Cornice stable? How were the rocks further down, anything still scraping at your bases?

Conditions were pretty stable, the cornice was really hard and seemed solid - took me a good 15 minutes of whacking with my whippet to get through.
