Comments
Didn't get the chance to trigger anything of big mention today, however while skiing down Davenport, there were several pockets on steep open faces and gully's that released very easily. These pockets were not too much to worry about in the level of terrain that I was in, however if people were pushing into bigger steeper terrain, I could see bigger unmanageable slides being triggered.
