Nice tour out the Skyline area today. Good skiing found on lower angle slopes. Widespread cracking was observed though the slabs were slightly more stubborn than yesterday. With a known avalanche problem we thought we would poke into the Skyline Ridge. After a productive ski cut and feeling the bed surface we decided to climb back up and bravely run away.
