May 1 Powder Skiing and Hiking

We had another beautiful Sunday hiking the Upper East Wall and skiing powder. It is May 1 and these were some of the best runs of the season. Specifically, we hiked the North Pole ridge and skied West Vertical Cornice and hiked the Willy's Wide Staircase and skied Corner Chute. Enjoy these pictures. They tell a great story.

Almost to Corner Chute. That is the Snorkel Door and Little Lenawee Peak in the top center of the photo.
