Spearhead Glacier

seatoskyjamie, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>Spent the afternoon lapping the Spearhead Glacier, accessed via the guides notch. Variable conditions, getting there, S slopes were firm and partially scoured. Fantastic powder on lower angle N face, with it firming up as it got steeper/exposed to wind. A mixture of firm wind pressed snow, cross loaded around rock features, and a shallower snowpack exiting up the S side. Bergschrund still across the bottom of Don’t Swill. Glacier is still heavily crevassed. </p>
