No Broken Legs, but some broken hearts.

Heartbreaking to have to decend back into the clouds after a great day in the sunshine. 

• Sunny skies above 4000ft in our location with no wind, save a few mild breezes coming from the southwest.
• The rain crust disappeared around 4600ft.
• Plenty of evidence of wind transport from the past few days. We were able to get a small cornice to fail at our feet. 
• At the high point of our tour, about 6300ft, we noticed some surface hoar development on the northeast aspect of the ridge we traveled. This surface hoar did not exist on a southwest aspect at the same elevation. 
• At 6300ft, we found 100cm HS on a southwest aspect. On a northeast aspect, it was 140cm.

We skied/rode down our skin track, with slope angles not exceeding 30 degrees. Looking forward to more sun in the future.
