Most Terrain has Good Cover.

Sunny to start, then cloud rolled in for a while covering tops. Cloud lifted to overcast with occasional sunny spells

Spring Snow conditions. Goose got pretty chopped up, skiers left of T-Bar was actually better. Summit button had delayed opening due to electrical fault, came on about 11AM. Summit run least spring like and fastest snow. Warrans T-Bar (unusually) ran all day, runs either side were good, right hand side especially good. Winger wall was skiing well on soft spring snow, with the entrance moving ever skiers left as rocks were uncovered. Egress out via high line had max 2 mins walk, via low line 3 mins walk. Low line required use of Rob-Roy T-Bar to regain rob-roy traverse back to base station. Nid wall was another pick for steep snow, and the ability to take a higher traverse back to Yokies and to descend to Alpha rather that side step up to it. I lapped this via Alpha and Warrens several times. Lots of big cornices fenced off along the ridge, beyond these, the usual entrance into the backs was pretty benign, and vast number of options using Braveheart. Lapped this for a few hours too. Great day, perhaps my last of this season. Drone 360 of backs should give decent indication of cover: https: //goo.gl/maps/wJqZyXww9Xo

Overcast and bit of flat light with very occasional sunny spells and patches of blue sky. Barely and wind

Typical spring snow, not slow though the Rock Garden was an exceptional. Most slopes have great cover still despite the week long thaw but do be aware of rocks and streams emerging from the snow pack. Plenty of off piste also to play in. Bangers and Slash was also ongoing in Thrombosis and trust us there were a fair few wipeouts!
