Comments

Rode the icecap out to south creek. There is very little avy activity on the appa and longspur glaciers especially compared to reports up the Duffey. The few were size one and start zone were below a cornice or lee of cliff band. Once in South creek there seemed to be more activity with this one size 2 slab avy again below a loaded cliff band and this large cornice drop.
