Chickadee Valley - Sheltered SW

jschmalenberg, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>First time in valley. Toured to Chickadee Col(?). Felt like a formed slab at 2000m once into assumed wind effect. No naturals observed. Moderate cornice breaks across valley. Felt comfortable with exposure to avalanche run-outs and trim lines on mid path given particular start zones. </p>
