Comments

Rapid warming pushed us over to North facing side of gulch early in morning. (see nathan shears MIN for S.F. aside)

Stayed next to trees and spread out while climbing up. Skied one at time to islands of safety. Snow was great coming down but could feel wind affected layer in spots. Dug pit half way up slope, results on cth6 and cth7 45cm down. No results on ect. All in all she was a good day.
