Comments
Skinning up the ridge, I observed lots of cracking. I also saw active wind transport on all ridge tops whenever the clouds cleared enough. I chose to ski the most protected line because I expected to have to keep an eye out for touchy slabs, and two small pockets pulled out as I skied down the north side of the ascent ridge. Nothing ran too far and the slides were really small.
