Comments
Good skiing considering the low snowpack this year. Didn’t dig a pit but estimate snow depth to be between 1-1.2 m at 2000 m elevation. There is a supportive crust 15-20cm down. Brought my rock skis but didn’t hit anything to my surprise. There was some avalanche debris in the south facing couloir on thanksgiving peak. Maybe a 1.5 size and a couple days old.
