Quick Observation
Skin up to the Asulkan hut. Conditions were good through the mouse trap and the triangle tress. Snow became wind affected at the pyramid and got worse the rest of the way to the hut.
Avalanche Information
Small skier-triggered avalanche. Triggered while skinning up to the Asulkan Hut. First skier laid the skin track through the small gully directly below the hut, above the pyramid. Second skier triggered a size 1 slab (30 cm deep and 10 m wide) which propagated up to about 10 m above the skin track. Very heavy wind loading in the area and fresh snow. Conditions didn't allow for pictures of the slab.
