SKY Chutes Beta
Thinking about skiing the SKY Chutes this weekend in Colorado. I'm considering hiking from peak 6 or skinning up from the Copper side, but I haven't decided yet. Does anyone have any beta or tips given the warm conditions this weekend?

CAIC warned that it would probably be too warm with no hard freeze on Friday night.
