Comments

Remote triggered size 1.5-2 by skier stopping on flat bench approx. 150m away. Touchy conditions all day: sounds of distant natural slides and snow settling. Localized whoompfing and settlement near Rohr Lake.

Low angle skiing in Rohr basin was great. Windblown midboot powder on supportive wind affected snow below.
