<p>Poked into east-facing slope and remote-triggered size 1.5 which ran quite far (~150m; bed surface was 30cm on rain crust). Bailed out and instead went down Goat Slide (W-facing) where the bond and loading were more manageable. Also saw size 2+ natural in Five Mile basin: debris and lateral crowns on west side of fingers to near valley bottom. </p>
