White Queen Shoulder

<p>Travelled up to 2050m on white Queen. Steady snowfall all day. 10-15cm of new unconsolidated snow overlies the nukeproof crust. Conditions below 1700m are still very zesty with lots of early season hazards. Winds were light through day, increasing at ridge top. No evidence of slab formation around tree line. But hard to see what winds were like at mountaintop due to 100% cloud cover.</p>
