Windy McSlab crest 💨🌪️

Demonic Pancake, Sunday 5th March, 2023 8:20PM
<p>Lots of wind blowing on Glacier Crest, nothing looked appealing on either side and we saw some twisty wind gusts crawling back up the dogleg couloir 🥶. It looks like another party turned around today or yesterday. From there we could see that the wind affected large areas on the Illicillewaet, towards lookout col and the Asulkan. We went back down and up towards the Dome which saw little wind today. The snow was great with 30cm of F snow sitting on another 15cm of 4F. The pillows near mushroom people were not bad either, but they got progressively slabbier on the way down, with a soft wind crust near the bottom. Great skiing overall. No major or concerning signs of avalanches where we were other that a few small naturals in the distance.</p>
