Comments

We spent 4 days touring from McMurdo hut. Some snowfall and drifted in Fri, Sat and Sunday nights. No avalanche activity, heard heli operation blast once near Beverly peak we thought. Shook the earth we were on! Consistent temp -4 dropping to -10 Monday. Superb riding above and with good vis Sun/Mon we toured above alpine to ride the glacier below David’s peak.
