On the ascent noted the large ski triggered slab avalanch from twin cairns reported a few days ago. The amount of shallow spots and wind affected snow caused us to reassess. We bailed on the summit attempt and chose to do a low angle slope lap after digging a snow pit to take a look at things. We saw another group do the same. We descended toward the resort and skinned back up towards the twin cairns for another ride before moving onto the resort for the afternoon.
