Avalanche Conditions

All the indicators of an increased avalanche hazard were there today. Strong gusty winds, new snow, upside down trail breaking and shooting cracks off the tips. There was a variable distribution of snow. Some slopes were scoured down to a crust and some had deposits of up to 70cms of 4F slabs. We skied down from 2200m and trigger small slabs 1-1.5 SE aspect @ 1900m 30-40cms deep. They had good propagation but didn't run far.
