French Haig Robertson

Good conditions for FHR loop. Started grey but sun popped out around 9:30. Fast travel up past TL. Strong winds in the Alpine. Evidence of a cycle on all aspects with alpine point releases often turning into large avalanches, sometimes stepping down mid path. Crux pitch was a boot back on suncrust that turned into wind affected skinnable snow as the angle slackened. Descent went from pretty okay to breakable crust. Witnessed a cornice failure on NE terrain above the descent route but couldn’t see debris or runout. In the fast section before the flats, slides on that same aspect buried previous skier track (48h+ looked like). Impressive debris piles on both sides from successive cycles. We had ski crampons but could’ve gone without. Grizzly tracks in both drainages.
