Comments

Skinned up liverwurst from Provincial. Skinned into the bowl and then took the ridge line up to ladder chutes.

Ridge was sun exposed with 10-20cm wind slabs triggered. Snow pinwheels falling down the hill since 12pm. Sun exposed was spicy. Wouldn't recommend open areas.

Skied into ladder chutes. Snow was stable and soft at the top. Wind affected at the lower half.

Epic skiing on all north facing slopes.
