Dozens of settlements while skinning the meadows between 1500-1900m with some long cracks (30m+). That surface hoar garbage scares the crap outta me. Good bootpacking and skiing found above 1900m in tight, steep alpine(ish) couloir/chute features that have already sloughed out. I'll be sticking to the flushed-out tight and steep stuff until below treeline gets its act together, in this area anyway.
