Great day for steep skiing on Nch’kay. Remote triggered a school bus sized cornice off the summit of Dalton Dome that swept the North Face. It didn’t trigger any slab but did entrain a significant amount of sluff, glacier ice, and rock as well as creating some pretty spectacular bomb holes in the face. Luckily we skied a bit over and found extremely good skiing in preserved powder. Not much of a shrund or crevasses on the NE Face of Garibaldi at the moment.
