White Rabbit Couloir

<p>Skied White Rabbit Couloir today. Skinned up the ridge and belayed to the edge to take a look at the line. The cornice is HUGE in spots. We found a reasonable spot to excavate an entrance to our line (while on belay). Very early day and quick in/out of the couloir to minimize overhead exposure. Basically everything on Ogden wall (including white rabbit) has slid recently. However there are definitely some good-sized pockets of storm slab lingering in the steep terrain. The couloir was a bit chunky but very fun if you enjoy hardpack— the runout was mostly rock-hard refrozen debris. </p>
