Comments
On the way up we experienced numerous whumphs to 1900m. We chose a line that had previously avalanched naturally. When we hit 1500m we easily ski cut a moraine (sz 1.5) which sympathetic triggered the rest of the moraine (sz 1.5) Both rattled and folded over numerous alder patches. The crowns were approximately 50cms mostly Fist resistance.
