Comments

Skied south facing alpine features. On the way up the ridge saw cracks shooting out about 2m ,in one place, of some wind slab. Skied a rib feature to avoid steeper slopes/rolls, descended into some trees further down the ridge where there was less wind effect. Treeline and lower was less wind effect, better skiing.
