We travelled between 1390m and 2460m today on a S aspect to stay warm. Some whumpfs down low with shooting cracks that disappeared with elevation gain. HS was 160cm at 2140m with 40cm of storm snow sitting on a sun crust. The snow on surface was low density and was bonding to the sun crust. No visible signs of recent avalanche activity. Wolverine managed to get first drop on us.
