Rode Rowe south/west face and summit. Around 20-40cm of fresh pow, wind effected in some places. No reactivity noted throughout the day and we didn’t see any natural avalanches. Dug two pits at 2000m. 1st pit: 125cm, CT 30+ no failure. 2nd pit: 80cm, CT 30+ no failure. Extremely wind affected above 2200m. Summit essentially completely wind scoured. Riding was amazing, deep pow turns in the trees!
