Tropical conditions. High temperature gradient. No signs of avalanches but lots roller balls. Gave cornices a wide birth. Traveled in firm conditions, temps warmed around noon and then skied corn.

Strong temperature gradient sitting on a crust 10cm down but CTs only showered reaction from a firm crust 25cm down. Did have one CTH7 fail 94cm down on facets. Didn’t have repeated results.
