On the road home, Crianlarich Hills are loaded with snow for anyone prepared to hike!

Shows the mix of hard icy snow and wind blown powder. Possible to board to the bottom following the drifts.

Fly paper in the middle (I think), spring run on the right shoulder, saw the gullys to the left of the Fly paper being ridden.

:: Weather Conditions
Good visibility all day, a little weak sunshine at times but generally overcast with a cold breeze. Surface stayed hard all day so I'd guess freezing level was around 400m.
:: Snow Conditions & Info
Fresh overnight snow was really nice where it had accumulated in hollows and lee slopes elsewhere snow was refrozen and icy. Hard to spot the transition from wind blown powder to hard pack. Where pisted (happy valley, mugs alley, access poma) surface was good 4/5. Spring run has good cover, Fly paper closed but I heard it was full of untracked powder! Mountain is loaded and lots of good lines possible especially when it softens!
