Comments

Skied West Nile area and attempted accessing Bow View ridge, after a hasty pit with Mod hand shear results on the Nov 5th I pulled the pin. Skiing was excellent with 20-30 cm ski pen and now wind effect or other tracks. I did get a couple of settlement BTL where the snowpack was considerably thinner. HS was 120cm at TL tapering to 60cm BTL, Nov 5th down 60cm at TL.
