Cabin side japan

Bitterly cold and crazy wind coming up the gulch from south-south west. Pit depth of 130cm on lookers right a few feet from the trees about 3/4 way up small chute. 10-15cm wind blown pow; hard slab below, pretty supportive with weak points at 20cm/60cm down. Cracks at 2nd pat from elbow 30 and 40cm down, shooting crack at 2nd hard strike from arm at 60cm. We road the pocket of "powder" on lookers right avoiding lookers left and more convex and windloaded aspect with small cornice. Riding wasn't good, lots of strips of concrete and flat light. One and done to go back to cabin for soup and wait out the wind.
