<p>Heard a large (sz 2-3) avalanche from Cheops North and saw a powder cloud around 10:00am. Moderate winds at treeline and below treeline forming large wind pillows with cracking up to 5m long. Creeks not very well filled in on the ski out from hospital bowl. 40cm storm snow was upside down in wind affected areas providing very difficult trail breaking.</p>
