Bread, Milk and Avalanche Warning.

17/12/10

Many thanks to Sandy Top Shop this morning for his warning that climbers should be particularly careful to avoid wind-slab accumulations on south and west facing slopes! The ex-rescue team guru (renowned for selling packets of cigarettes at ludicrous prices during prolonged rescues) was still wearing his gortex in the shop because the next bout of snow has arrived. The main road is passable with care and deliveries have made it up from the central belt this morning.
