Comments
A lot of windslab on hermit close to the glacier. Several groups triggered several avalanche. At least 3 avy on the way up, many natural. Triggered 2 on the way down. Most of the convex roll are either skier triggered or natural release. Slab of 10 to 40 cm. Release on an interface with lower density snow. This was specific to the terrain between hermit meadow and the flat part of the glacier at the base of rogers/swiss
