Met up with Shin, Richard, Stacy, Curt, Carole and Darren at Manker. We were lucky to get parking before the crowds arrived.

Headed up the ski hut trail and it was a lot warmer than the weather had forecast.

Beautiful blue skies and great snow. Above the hut the bowl was deep snow. And more on the way. Not much wind until the summit. The ice on the trees was magnificent.

Postholed back to the hut. A really fun day.
