All of the snow Andy had on Saturday must have blown away as most every place above Panorama point was very icy. East wind blew all day. Ron Jarvis, Dorothea Driggers and myself traversed west at 8000' across boilerplate to Pebble creek drainage. There we found some "softer snow" deposited and made some decent turns. Maybe 25 skiers/boarders total, quite a few had crampons. Better skiing will come.
