Comments
Rode Pulpit 4 today. River crossing was frozen over. Trail breaking mostly not too bad about 20cm ski pen. Dug a pit at 2260m NE aspect. HS 210cm. 36deg slope at treeline. CTH26 55cm B and CTH24 50cm B. We rode the open slope beside that pit and it was wonderful. Coverage was great on the pillows. I triggered a size 1 storm slab on a convex roll about 35deg. 20cm deep about 10m wide ran about 100m. Included a photo. Some natural activity heard in the alpine behind Pulpit area but visibility wasn't great.
