Comments

Bony walk up to Rae Glacier today, as expected. 10-50cm of snow on the glacier, well bonded to ice and itself, no stability concerns. The upper 200m skied OK but we hit ice on a few turns. Below the glacier coverage is thin. Skiing not recommended yet but reasonable with another 20-30cm. Alpine ice is starting to form.
