Fine day skiing(mostly) on White Pyramid. Good conditions but it is getting skinny down low.
We walked a bit in the first hour and on the summit ridge and that will be the only option soon down low. River is open and is a good wakeup. Great conditions today with a good overnight freeze. Wet slides starting running on the east faces around 9:30 and were continuous till around 2pm.
Good uphill travel and quite good ski quality on the descent right to treeline. Things may change with the grey forecast but till then it is a winner.
