Comments

20cm well preserved powder on non-solar aspects. Only activity on non-solar aspects was recent debris (<24 hours?) one drainage over on a steep north face couloir. Size 2. In the drainage above AlpX hut north /northwest faces weren't slabbing up. Great turns.

Sizeable cornices survived the heat wave.
