Commentaires
Good run up Howard Douglas today. Started with first gondola at 8am and snow was bullet proof all the way to the col (although col was softening up quite a bit by 11am so we turned around and skipped the summit). Upper ramp was in great shape - bowl had multiple overlapping loose wets from yesterday more than likely. We tried to time our descent and left the ramp at 12:30. Snow was still quite hard and crust was very supportive, but by 1pm on the flats by Fat Boy it was breaking down and snow was quite moist. Saw a size 2 on the backside of Galaxy Ridge (E facing) around 10:30 that started as loose wet then triggered wet slab - but that was on the backside of the col. Ski crampons required - boot crampons useful but we made due without them. Beauty of a day out there ...
