Dug a quick pit at 2000m CTE 4 sudden collapse/ sudden planar result on a hoar frost layer about 60cm down. The whole block slid easily off the column. Defiantly confirmed our terrain selection had to be conservative. Played on fairly low angle stuff for the day. Snow is wind effected up high in the open but blown in and bottomless lower in more protected areas.
