Lovely day on STS ๐Ÿ™‚ Smooth sailing on the approach, no red flags nothing remarkable Top pitch of couloir, we dropped a fridge sized cornice, only flushed the top ~10cm. In the pillow noted a 30-40cm slab breaking planar in hand tests but did not seem reactive to skiers or the fatty cornice drop. Sluffed under skis but no propagation Lower couloir skied blower with no signs of instability
