Vertical Drop: ?
Lil
punk and i went for a very short ski tour to the south ridge of the cairnwell today. There
isn't really a lot of snow about for any great touring, but the
conditions have inproved a lot since the 6th january. Where still
needing a lot more snow to fill in the CNS and other lines we have been
looking at. Any way, skiing the south ridge down to
the road is kind of boring so, i'm not going to write about that.
The
weather in the morning started of with blue sky's, with some high
clouds. By about 12.00pm the light got flat, with low cloud and
light snow showers.
In the afternoon we done about 2 hours of
beacon pratice on C.A and also tried to dig a snow hole in a drift. But
it never worked out in the end.
