Sandon - Cut Block

<p>About 70cm base below treeline @ 1600m. Some shooting cracks propagating upto 20m away. The 10cm of fresh snow made the trees finally feel just filled in enough, relatively well bonded to base layer, with some small amounts of sluffing from storm slab on the low angle slope. (November layer more than 30cm burried) As the day warmed to near 0c snow started to feel a bit heavy, though still nice powder run the whole way down. </p>
