With the freezing level at 7000 and seeing plenty of snow on Castle Peak from Paradise we decided to go for sure corn rather than possible ice coming down from Muir. We were able to ski all the way up and back from Reflecton Lake. There was still enough snow on the south side to get almost as far down as during the winter. The snow wasn't perfect corn, but very good. Managed to get in 3,500 feet of Yo Yoing.
