Comments
Hector pass headwall was still in good condition, snow the entire route, snow was supportive in the morning but not much of a freeze below 2200m. Mostly light snow all day bit when the sun came out it made solar aspects moist to 3000m. Great ski decent down the glacier. There are 4 open crevasses right before the steep roll over, right where you want to be skiing, felt spicy especially with only OK vis. Great powder skiing right to the colouir. Had to boot back down the steep trees at the Nosseum head wall in isothermic conditions. Creek was supportive below.
