Bush-wacking toward Castle Rocks

<p>Temperatures up to 2.5 degrees at 1500 m around 14:00. Lots of snow falling from trees and small loose wet avalanches/snowballing in steep areas. Did not see any slab avalanches in this area but spent very little time observing open and steep terrain. More out there for the adventure today, didn't feel the need to ski anything crazy. Would maybe take the bike tracks up if I go back it's quite thick bush in the trees.</p>
