it's hard to seperate out the possibility of other avalanche types from the question.
spacing out will not be the issue, guidance and group control around unsupported feature will be the issue
no way - worried about the slab
after successful skicut!
more spaced out than one at a time
Would control slope as a guide
I might not enter at all. It depends on the context of the day. It would not be my first run.
Chances are the guide could control this small slope ptior to having other skiers enter it...
it would be fine except that the warming and solar radn will increase consequence despite lack of terrain traps
a larger group if they ski well and are accustomed to skiing out of sluffs
I question the difference between a small group of professionals and a small group of guided skiers. Is it that professionals are expendable or less valuable or bought their ticket so take their chances?
They would have to do a lot of poling
Not with the thaw instability
