We followed Tom Wolfe up the North Face by pass route today.
Just to add to his comments.
There has been several shallow slab releases in the storm snow from last week. Many of them were on solar aspects and although fairly small the consequence of being caught in them would be serious due to the terrain they occured in.
Attached is a photo looking down at the icefall below the Ramp route on Athabasca. I was shocked at how active this zone has become recently.
Cheers,
Steve Blagbrough.
