Comments

It was impossible not to trigger the ~15cm storm slab on the ESE face of McGill today. The slides were small with no more than 10m propagation but we didn't venture any further north than the pin into more open areas. Stability was equally poor at 1900m as it was at 2080m but improved below 1900m.
