Comments
As soon as we left the treeline, trying to reach the ridge, we start hearing some whumpfing, we kept going through the trees and it got worse, it felt like the entire face we were climbing collapsed under our feet with a very strong drum sound, no cracking or activity, but felt like a bery big red flag.. We turned around and skied trees and pillows. Good day up there!
