Originally planned for an objective on the south facing side of Ten Mile, but the sun was packing a punch and created damp surface conditions. This, added to the fact that there was 20cm new snow from overnight, caused us to adjust our objective and ski Hall Pass on the north facing side. This proved to be the right call as we listened to, and watched multiple avalanches tumble down the sunny slopes across the fjord. Not only did our choice keep us out of harms way, but we were also treated to an incredible run of deep, stable, blower powder!! Of note is the fact that the two crux sections of the run are not as full as other seasons, resulting in two mandatory drops over frozen waterfalls. The drops are small and the snow is deep (currently) so shouldn’t pose too much problem, but be prepared to get sporty!
