 My bases have seen better days   

Snow pack was not as good as I expected. The access road to the trail head was easily skinable but had to get of the skis at the trail head and walk though the parking lot. Wetland area was skinable but not great. Had to ditch the skis half way up the climb due to lack of coverage. Windy at the top but what can you expect, lost my hat and scratched my base a bit :( finished in just over six hours. At least the avy danger was all but non existent and there was no cornice to worry about.
