Ddrwyoming: November 20, 2010 Uphill: 1,600 ft. | Downhill: 3,500 ft.

Choked on snow for the first time of the season! Over a foot of new snow, and coming!
Glory was super windy-strongest wind yet this week. I headed up late afternoon. Had a route in mind but with the wind and timing after putting the boot pack back in, safety became my main priority and had to choose another. Shot down the safest line I know. Forced a few wind packed fractures to see what could happen, but didn't move considerably.

Headed up Shivers to ski to old pass road and walk home.

Still puking snow, can't wait for tomorrow

With new snow and wind, check avi danger!
