Comments
Skiied gunsight gap. Wind affected snow and variable soft facets in the Alpine. The top 20cm of the snowpack is variably faceted with sheltered surface hoar at treeline up to 10mm. Quite a bit of active solar activity from previous day on steep solar aspects leaving soft slab debris. Lots of large old avalanche debris deep in the gullies from the previous pineapple event and evidence of significant slab activity.
