<p>Skinned up the east side of Hummingbird pass. Jumped on small convex rolls on the way up and noted new storm snow sliding on a sun crust layer from earlier in the week. We rode a SE face below treeline, small shooting cracks and some minor releases observed on slopes between 30 - 35 degrees. </p>
