Comments

Surprisingly good skiing on 5-15 cm of powder & wind drifted snow atop a firm base. Numerous loose dry avalanches in ALP. Surface snow faceting & loosing strength - see ski track photo. Cols either side of Commonwealth Peak skied from Burstall. Lots of tracks to ridge top on south side of Commonwealth creek.
