Via sat phone this morning from the Bugaboos to Rogers Pass traverse: A bridge failed on a 3m wide crevasse when the lead skier was in the middle of it. They had the rope on so no problem. Word was to warn others that crevasse bridges appear to be thinner than normal and and not as strong as they may look. Consider putting the rope on sooner rather than later and keeping it on more rather than less even when things look fairly benign.
