A windy day on Rohr

<p>Marriot basin trail and turn-off up to Rohr lake made for fast travel - compact / icy. From Rohr lake all the way up the basin was firm sun crust. We gained the west ridge of Rohr and we’re met with much stronger than expected winds at 1800m (50-60kph). Fairly significant snow transport had already formed 10-15cm soft slab on N / NW facing lees. This was reactive on micro features to skier load but wasn’t propagating significantly. Protected mellow north facing slopes skied pretty well. Not as much new snow as expected through the day on Saturday (trace). Best snow of the day was found in the pillows from Rohr lake back down to the exit road</p>
