here's some updates. In general, we found great corn on S. facing slopes. And great pow on N. Facing slopes above 9K.

Matterhorn - ski dreams... see plenty of pow here. Lots of sluff, but felt quite stable. (from Sat)

Dana Plateau - Dan Mingori and Tom Burt ahead, leading the splitfest crew. While skinning up Coke Chute a wet slide almost took me down with it, so did a short run from midway up. (from Sun)

Then hiked this N. Facing chute with these guys. I'm betting that up high on directly N. Facing shots, there are still pockets of really nice pow.

Enjoy :D
