Gutentight couloir

<p>Heavy sun affected snow from valley bottom up until the middle of the fan below the couloir. Dry snow up the couloir a bit affected by various slide and sluff that went down the couloir in previous days (like you'd expect in couloir like that) A relatively easy bootpack up (crampons highly recommended) and good skiing conditions. Went up the couloir only until above the first rock band. conditions looked good too higher up! If anyone head up that way, keep an eye out for an ice axe that I left up there, if you find it, email [email protected] i'd be happy to give you beer or a bit of money to have it back!</p>
