Risk Analysis
Chalamain Gap filed 30ft deep with avalanche debris. This did not feel like a safe place to hang about taking photos; a steep slope of ice and snow that had not yet fallen stretched 200 metres further back behind me along the gap.
The crown wall of the avalanche can be seen on the top right off the photo, roughly 2 meters high, starting halfway through Chalamain Gap and continuing for 300 meters along the North East ridge.
Time to go.
