Comments
We headed out towards the Hallway from Flagstaff. We were suspect of the snow once we got off the ridge so we decided to do a belayed ski cut. I got about halfway across the start zone when it propagated at my feet in front and behind me, I had plenty of speed and was not caught. It stepped down to the facets. SS-ARc-D2-O-2'.
