<p>Snow pack was 160 cm surface was heavily affected by solar radiation and you could see size 2 avalanches had been released day before on south facing slopes. Biggest layer of concern is down 60cm failed 3 times at CTM 12-13 on 3-5mm facets. This layer did not propagate across the slope during the ECT. But I feel as the snow pack warms up </p>
