| Beautiful morning up the Kendall Knob for some early splitter turns going solo. Crunchy crap but actually very grippy on the skins on the way up but had to use the crampons on the ridge since it was really windblown.
North facing slope and west were awful but I opted for the south which had some very tasty windblown pow on it. Was exceptionally good considering what I was expecting. Traversed round at 1/2 way down onto the west slope to make it back to the car and that part down was the white trash your granny warned you to avoid. Still it was worth it for the 30 or so white room turns beforehand. Sun was out and it was super pretty up there but the south slope will be cooked really quickly. Lots of avi debris around too, likely from Sat when the slopes got pretty warm. |
