Rummel Pass

While most forecasts had called for clear skies overnight, there was light precipitation that resulted in ~4cm of fresh wet snow above 2100m and clouds that held in the heat and prevented a re-freeze. Snowpack underneath was wet with no substantial re-freeze anywhere I travelled (up to ~2400m), but reasonably supportive snowpack in most places. Travel was pretty good, but definitely low confidence in the stability of any steep slopes.
