Toured up W. Facing terrain on Mt. Nemesis coming out of the hut. Full range of sun crust, rime crust, wind crust, and consolidated powder between SW to NW aspects. Snow structure felt consolidated and stable in most areas but became hollow and slabby in rocky terrain ~8,800’ . We turned back and found a lower angle path down to the skin track.
