Quick report

Early season turns on the glacier! Plenty of boulders to navigate, but they can all be skied through Wind slab present in some areas Snow has fallen from cliff bands in places. These look like point releases, but no snow from the glacier is involved Variable surface from 20cm loose snow to a soft wind slab up to 3cm thick 80cm depth to glacial ice. Only cohesive layer present was the top wind slab. Slab is well adhered to the lower layers.
