Comments
At the base of bear trap west and the glades we found 36" of new inverted snow sitting on top of garbage facets on the ground. Friday nights storm was cold and this storm was much warmer and led to us just turn around. Cracking and collapsing all along the gulley on all aspects and cracking and woompfing most steps along the skinner. Bear trap west seemed the safer bet but it's still very twiggy. We just called it and decided on getting some wings instead. Lower part of bear trap fork was very low tide and the logs under the snow were very sketchy to navigate down.
