Powder on Curved Ridge












Today I climbed Curved Ridge with Al and his client. As i have just done my MIA training I was keeping a close eye on how he managed his client throughout the day and trying to admire the views at the same time. Conditions . . . . lots of snow! All in powder form, as there was very little wind as it fell yesterday it hasn't bonded and is very soft. Underneath the snow turf hasn't really frozen either. Felt extremely cold walking off the hill today and its going to be cold tonight however the snow pack will stay pretty much the same, what we need and a thaw and re-freeze to firm it all up.
