Comments
Ventured out to the fireguard ridge without much intention to ski. Dug a pit on north aspect - ECTH22 and CTH28 down around 115cm, nonplanar breaks on facets. Did not ski the north aspect, just a brief descent back down to the sleds in the sun. Few avalanches observed - all point releases/pinwheels.
