Comments
Lots of recent slide activity in the Watersprite zone. Full path size 3 on south aspect at treeline probably from the last storm, 4 or 5 different wet loose size 1/1.5 on south aspect at treeline with one running full path across the summer approach. Large slide on north aspect at 1500m incorporating a number of different slopes running full path, a few days old. A good number of alpine wet/loose slides size 1 on south slopes as well as many point release everywhere you looked.
Rapid warming yesterday with alpine temps around +5.
