Quick report
- Comment
- In addition to wind W and E facing slabs reported by other MINs, we observed a sz 1.5 wind slab release near rocky areas with one skier caught, not injured, skiers right of 9th hole on N aspect as we were exiting. Snow on North aspects held 15 cm of dry nice snow. Exit on Corona was sporty but goes all the way to the village. We probed to >3.30m on the Spearhead glacier where coverage seemed great.
