Dogleg area

<p>Decent morning in the dogleg area. Lots of tracks from previous days in main path and pretty grabby but some fresh tracks available if you poked around elsewhere. Started at the car at 8:30 and back to car by noon, not sure you’d want to be out much later as it got very very warm and very very sticky. Anything with any sun exposure was pretty wet and full on solar exposure was slush even at 2200 m by 11. Bottom of the valley was bomb proof frozen and hadn’t defrosted by noon which made the luge track pretty wild. Forecast was pretty bang on with start early end early. Impressive avalanche activity on the hero’s knob east face from the storm, would have been quite something to see. </p>
