Comments

Tutshi chutes were a busy place this weekend, on both Saturday and Sunday.

Luckily, its deep out there and there was plenty of snow for everyone to enjoy :)

We observed similar conditions to Cedar's MIN from Friday (crust becoming present ~30cm down starting just below treeline), and also opted to ski the more W-SW aspects, avoiding steeper rolls present on the N-NW Tutshi runs. It was fairly windy (and warm at -2C) at treeline and by the end of the day on Saturday we noticed the surface layer becoming slabby at/above treeline.
