Completed Dolomite Circuit. TL and above we experienced significant whumpfs, and spent most of the day with an inclinometer in hand. Observed few older loose dry releases on steep alpine terrain, and numerous slab avalanches most of which appeared to fail on the recent storm layer, some of which stepped down to the DPL, all of which appeared to be from the last few days. Sun was packing a punch.
Avalanche
Few loose dry to size 1.5. Numerous storm slabs to size 2. Exit gully from Dolomite - OXO col had size 2.5 that failed on DPL.
