Remote Triggering

<p>Since the storm started there has been over 60cm of snow deposited over the facets at high treeline/low alpine in the Hector South Ridge area on windward aspects, much more on lee (80+cm). Skiing downhill on low angle slopes proved to be a challenge due to lack of snow support but no way we were going on anything even remotely steep today.</p>
