Skied out of P20 south to Healey hut and back. The sign at the parking lot stating "Not Recommended" seemed a little extreme but the conditions were quite variable as Ian and Etienne found at P10. The first km from P20 to the summer registration building was the worst part with mostly an icy trail and the hill descending to the building almost melted through to the asphalt. From there on things improved quite a bit. There were some short icy stretches and a few small open patches of gravel but they were mostly manageable or you could ski around the trouble spots. There were also long stretches of fast, spring corn snow on a solid base making for good skiing. Lots of dirty sections as well but I was using the rock skis so no worries.

Skied a km or so up trail 52 from the 50 which hadn't been groomed since the flash freeze but it was similar to the groomed 50. A soft layer of slushy snow on a firm base with occasional stretches of ice. Didn't have the courage though to carry on and see how the rest of the "triangle" was faring.

Sadly the forecast doesn't bode well for the dwindling snow pack. A couple of warm days could open up a few portages making things a little tougher. Hopefully there's a Colorado low or Alberta clipper in the longer range forecast coming our way to extend the ski season a little longer.
