Mt Murray Yellowhawk Trail

<p>Beautiful day on the Yellowhawk Trail to the Mt Murray cabin and onto Mt Greenbury. -5 Degrees or so, fresh snow and the skin track was in. We were aware of the windslab hazard so selected a cautious approach to the steeper slopes and investigated the snowpack before committing. Snowpack very stable and well consolidated below the most recent storm snow. Great day in the hills</p>
