Given today’s avy conditions, high-con-con, that heavily influenced our trip plan. But we didn’t see as much activity as we thought we might. After doing a test profile, we felt it was less likely that we would see any of the deeper slabs release. We kept our exposure to a minimum and were able to climb some steep slopes on smaller features. several smaller slopes with small convex rolls. Did a few hill climbs but avoided terrain traps.
