Headed up mill b to ski some upper elevation north-facing terrain. Quickly reconsidered our objective after seeing how reactive the new snow was. Bailed out to less consequential terrain, where we still managed to trigger a number of soft slab avalanches on steep rollovers. Photo is of a shooting crack during our exit.
