Comments

Set out for Video Peak to avoid known slab issues at tree line and below. Visibility was touch and go as clouds came in and out. Dug a pit at 2,214m, SE aspect, 12:02pm, with ECTX result. Continued on for the summit noting small loose slides on steeper terrain. One notable crown on climbers left of the peak. No whumping or cracking from the pit to summit. Waist deep blower pow all the way down to the trees. Once at tree line we watched a skier trigger a size 0.5 on a convex roll.
