Comments
We Checked out the SWG area today, made it to the cabin but too stormy to venture into the tablelands. Conditions in the Japan zone made it a no brainer to stick to the small stuff. storm slab 30-40cm was reactive, easy compression tests and hand shears, cracks, and a natural size 1. Riding was great! FYI we skirted the ponds, ice is slobby and not confidence inspiring.
