Mount Frodo

Incident Report

Layer of wind affected powder on the north slope of the Peregrine Frodo pass that was unstable on the steeper convex slope at the top of the skin track. We stayed away from the steeper/convex features, as we noticed instability and cracks, but the first skier who tried to take the least affected line triggered the top layer of powder around 20cm that slid in loose dry sluff. The rest of the group skied on the cleared crust to avoid the unstable powder. The rest of the slope below the steep pass had no issues and great snow quality.
