Comments
Easy travel above Nordic valley today. Strong winds created windslab with varying stiffness depending on exposure. Intentionally triggered this tiny avalanche on a steep roll over.
''Also observed what appeared to be isolated surface hoar that had generally been knocked down by the wind in a lower down meadow on Apollo ridge.
