Salvageable day on Fraser chutes west of main gully. ~15cm new snow, but could still feel the wind crust underneath. Couple of massive whumpfs and shooting cracks. Pit dug near one of these big whumpfs where shooting crack was observed on southwest aspect 3636ft. Failure on CT11M on that nasty rain crust 43cm down.
