Backcountry skiing 4:00:00 [3] +1650m
Bob and Lucy are in town. Cold day but clear - headed up to macpherson. A summit attempt was a possibility. Have never seen as many tracks near the furry knob as there was today. I guess the high hazard concentrated people in certain spots. Even had some tracks heading up towards the summit. We decided against going all the way to the top as the crux pitch didn't look that appealing and it was a bit cold to enjoy the summit. Skied a new line from the upper shoulder then skinned up and skied the boulevard on skiers right. Despite the previous traffic found some untracked snow. The cold temps made it ski kind of weird but still a nice day.
