Last trip up Granite Mountain we stayed along the ridgeline on the horizon, where it was quite windy. Back in November, there wasn't really enough snow to allow safe access to the summit via the ridge scramble.
This time I had a bit more time. Instead of joining five others that were gunning for the summit, I explored the bowl north and west of there. It was untouched, calm, and beautiful. The character of the snow was quite different than on the steep slopes.
Looks great! When can I go snowboarding on it?
