Avalanche Conditions

avalancheConditionSnow

Cold weather skiing through deep, light powder. Wind gusts and low visibility at top of crest that improve steadily throughout descent. Not wind affected, snowpack seemed stable. Unavoidable convexity at top of Crest held well. Steeper sections at alpine/top of treeeline were sluffing lightly.
