Comments
Skied a south facing alpine feature in the Lake Louise area April 14th. Good ski conditions on a softened crust over old avalanche debris. Witnessed many loose wet avalanches in very steep/extreme terrain on south and south-east aspects starting at 0930 and was continuous. Early start and early finish.
