Still a lot of snow. Icy in places in the hourglass, but no ice bulge requiring special maneuvering. Snow was pretty soft in most of the hourglass and gully. We used crampons for much of the traverse. Lots of post holing in the early afternoon on the far side of the lake and on the traverse. Nice glissade through the gully and no hidden rocks coming down. No new avy debris by noon today, but gully, traverse and hourglass all had evidence of pinwheels or rollerballs from previous days. One skier descent through the hourglass.
