Quick report

D1 small 2-3 inch slab release and sluffs between bardini left and old growth. N/nw 9600-9000’. Original plan was to ski banana chute but blowing snow over leeward ridges scared us away. We bailed right in the canyon up toward punta bardini peak. Wind slabs certainly more apparent and reactive than yesterday in elderberry at same general elevation and aspect. Main observation was immense amounts of blowing snow over lee slopes.
