Tangle.

On behalf of the Tangle Peak weather station I can confirm it was hot outside today! -1 at 9am and +11 at 3pm both at the car (1800M) Even in the morning travel BTL was desperate to say the least with ski pen to ground in most places. Without the preexisting skin track we would have turned around. Exposed areas at treeline is where it became supportive with sastrugi, old hard wind slab or rock making speedy travel. On the descent things had softened up and we skied smooth corn or surface facets back to treeline where survival skiing started. Several wet loose avalanches to size 1 on solar slopes and either a large serac failure or cornice and slab ran through Grand Central on Kitchener north face.
