Comments

Very cold (-25 deg C) at cayoosh summit. Wind was moderate on matier glacier and looked to be blowing hard over the summit of matier. Poked into the Aussie Couloir but found wind slab building on the sides in the first 1/4 so called it there. Some minor sluffs noted during the day on steep rock faces but no avalanche activity observed.
