Central Duffey

leetlau, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>Central Duffey -12 to - 15 deg. Skies mainly clear with odd scattered cloud and strangely not a lot of winds at ridgetop but stronger at valley bottom with winds swirling in moderate velocity from SW. Take that as an anomaly as snow distribution seemed to be the prevailing NE. Did two shots off ridgelines with snow of above average quadruple overhead blower quality low density. Soft sluff ( but not slab) on 400m SE shot not running very far even on solar crust 25cms down. Crust made for adventure skinning returning to ridge. Then gutted an untouched 500m shot NW off the same ridge. Zipper windslab at ridgeline on the first few turns then bottomless blower to the bottom. Couldn't get sluff to run even with aggressive cuts</p>
