Good day of riding in Tommy Creek today. There was a bit of a crust first thing but the snow softened up mid morning and the riding was decent. The best snow was on steep northerly facing slopes above 2200 m where the last bits of dry snow were hanging out. There were lots of signs of previous wet loose slides, a cornice fall, and even a wet slab avalanche from the last couple of warm days. By late afternoon most the snow surface was moist with new wet loose activity started up around 15:00 on steep southerly faces. Some of these had notable debris piles and one we saw ok the drive out had ran to valley bottom. The day was a mix of sun and cloud with temperatures above 0°C and moderate southerly winds but no blowing snow.
There were many signs of the warm temperatures spreading high into the alpine.

Riding was good once the snow softened up in the early afternoon sun.

We saw a large slab that had been triggered by loose wet activity on a south facing alpine slope.

There were lots of wet loose avalanches from the last couple of warm days. New loose wet activity started late in the afternoon on slopes being baked by the sun. Some of this got alarming big and one we saw on the drive out ran all the way to valley bottom.
