Quick Observation
Day out to check out high five wall just passed crowfoot pass. Turned back for the glades due to Na activity and sheer lack of HS on skiable slopes in the alpine. Travel was mostly supportive . Skiing the glades was 60-80 HS, 15 cms of fist on supportive mid pack.
Avalanche Information
Saw 3 Na on N/Ne aspects , one confirmed cornice slab (see picture) and 2 a lot more filled in but noticeable debris. One size 2 and two size 1.5. On more noticeable Na looked to have pulled up in the choke and mid slope with deeper crown. Suspected dps.
Weather
Winds were moderate gusting strong out of the s /sw at crowfoot pass and light down low in the glades. Constant spin drifting off head wall of crowfoot.
