The Fingers

We rode the looker's left two fingers today. Conditions were wet and heavy at the bottom, getting progressively better further up. The reported persistent weak layer was very obvious when we dug for it in the upper half of the slope, at about 30cm down. The pack was stable on the mellower slopes, but we stayed well away from the steeper slopes closer to the top. It snowed steadily for the ~4hrs we were out at about 1cm/hr.
