Comments
Travelling trip from Customs, to Bryant Lake (some call it Fraser Lake) and up to the col overlooking the Chilkoot Trail. Numerous settlements throughout the day. No shooting cracks. Decent visibility at times so had a good look at the entire valley and no signs of recent avalanche activity. At one point, we started up a mellow N facing slope for some actual turns, but headed down after several significant whumphs.
