Comments

The day was super foggy. I could fool you with that sunny picture we got excited and it only lasted 3 minutes. We had to bail on our objective because of the visibility and Avy conditions. There were signs of slab along the trail. Patience game, we dug to that layer, there is 55cm of new snow on top, not bonding well. Snow is dense. 390 cm total. We did not feel the crust while sledding.
