Comments
Toured towards Grizzly Couloir. Melt crust from Disco to about 1900m, improving as new snow depth increased. About 30cm below ridgeline. Got turned around before top due to crust and flat light (an issue with the avi debris and frozen pinwheels).
Top turns were good - had to watch for fast dry slough. Bottom was an exercise in not trying.
Looked over at Frequent Flyer (photos). No signs of it moving. Locked and loaded?
