Skied the Paget glades. It was standing room only in the parking lot by 930am. The glades skied well but steep west and SW slopes got wet and skicky at around 2200m. our final lap around 330pm down the south aspect above the parking lot through the trees was full on sticky with pinwheels for 100 vertical meters. The winds kept the Alpine dry. From across the valley we saw 1.5-2 sa on the top of the Ogden bench which ran on the January 29. Heard in the parking lot that it was remotely triggered 10m horizontally and covered a bunch of tracks from earlier in the day down the gully. Red marks the crown and end of debris field.
