Comments

Continuing with the trend of the week, core Fernie sledding terrain remains wind affected in open areas but good powder riding in sheltered trees. Lee slopes holding pockets of wind slab with a few small sled triggered results 25cm deep. We were able to enjoy a few beautiful turns on the sunny side of the valley in the afternoon with temps hovering around -2C at treeline. No results on ECT or CT.
