Comments
The 5th or 6th person in a party of 6 triggered a 1.5 wind slab on their uptrack. Suspected that 1 or 2 people went for a 2 to 5 Metre ride. Our group went the other way to the col, found some powder on low angle terrain. Noticeable wind affect on the moraine and some shooting cracks. We found 2 meters of snow on the approach glacier to the chickaboom col. There were a couple of glacier holes at the pass.
