Comments
Skied N and West aspects between 2400m and 1850m south of the Mary. Besides the deep trail breaking and excellent ski conditions my two take aways were:
1. Steep open terrain below 2050m was extremely touchy with multiple remote fractures and large propagations approx. 50-60cm deep on the old crust; and,
2. Some regularly performing avalanche paths had not slid recently so there is definitely overhead hazard lingering.
Stability seemed to improve as we gained elevation. Winds were light SW and about 3cm fell during the day.
