Quick Observation

We snowshoed/skied the Mt Curran/Squarehead/Joan loop Jan 21-22. On Jan 21, the southwest face of Curran on the col down towards Squarehead, there was a highly reactive windslab that was anywhere from 6-12inches deep at approx 1400m and lots of shooting cracks. On Jan 22nd, we traversed over to Mt Squarehead and Joan early in the day. Temps were quite cold and everything was stable, even in more avy terrain. We saw one Size 1 that likely released on the 21st between Squarehead and Joan, but no other activity. There seemed to be a wind crust still, but it didn't propagate as we travelled on it.
