Nigel Creek Slide Paths

Pleasant uphill travel and solid bridging for creek crossings. Surface layers ranged from soft powder to breakable wind crust to unbreakable crust over facets (might be a layer to watch with next snow dump). New surface hoar in sheltered pockets near valley bottom. Heavy solar effect all day. No cracking/whumpfing observed today.

Hs 150cm at 2300 on sw aspect CTM 12 down 120cm SP on facets Possibly due to solar effect causing denser upper snowpack
