<p>Heavy trail breaking at TL and ALP up to healy pass. In wind pressed powder. The tele hagans gave a good workout today. Uptrack just past the Simpson pass turnoff gets a bit messy for a brief moment to avoid downed trees.
HS 125cm at 2350m in wind exposed SE slope. 55cms on top of early December interface. No crust. F to 4F density in top 55cms, CTH 21 RP on this interface. No surface cracking. Settled mid pack . Nov 5 rain crust 20 cm above ground here. Basel facets beneath that to ground.
SP 30cm FP 50 cm
Audible avalanches heard at the pass. Not sure if that was SSV or not. Moderate westerly gusts in the ALP moving quite a bit of snow filling trail in less than an hour.
Wx -12 Celsius at 2pm at 2350m. Overcast with light flurries.</p>
