Comments
Went up Thar Peak this morning at 8am; snow was wet and heavy most of the way up. Cloudy skies in the AM turned into snow and moderate winds above 1700m later in the morning. Low visibility. Set off at least 1 small 0.5 wet slab avalanche. Evidence of lots of pinwheeling and loose snow avalanche debris.
