Heavy snow and strong winds providing challenging conditions. Warming up a bit about 1.30pm and then slight snow showers.

Full deep cover bit unconsolidated in places. Some old snow pack evident. Deep soft on NE through to East aspects, making difficult decent on easier angled slopes. Full depth penetration at treeline although snow slightly easier to ski as less disturbed.
