CTE1ST down 20 - collapse on half of column not full result CTM14 down 45 drop and fractured but did not propagate across column, highly resistant CTM18 down 53 fractured and propagated but highly resistant to sliding CTH21 down 60 plainer but very resistant Snow was heavy with a crust at low elevation. Snow got lighter and crust disappeared with elevation, Crust remained until around 1050m and slowly diminished with elevation. Overall good to ok skiing until around 900m, then survival skiing.
