Comments
Warm day. Cloudy and calm all day. We were in the south facing gully when the sun came out at 2pm which triggered wet loose cycle to size 1.5 below 2600m on polar aspects and pin wheeling on solar aspects. Got a later start and was forced to bail. Good skiing down on wet snow. Still supportive through the trees.
