Comments

New snow is slowly adding up, with 5-10cm now sitting on the crust that formed from last weeks rain.

The new snow is has been blown around by the wind and we saw a few shooting cracks on small steep slopes on our little ski tour in the Fraser area today.

We timidly tried some ski turns in low angle terrain and were surprised that the crust was generally supportive.
