Wind effect on convex terrain features. Shooting cracks observed in the attached photo occurred on a SE facing convex rollover close to the plateau beneath Enma Peak in Kutetl Basin. We avoided wind loaded convex terrain features. Skied into 5 mile via the hidden chute where we found great snow down to the acidophilus skin track.
