Comments
The snowpack at the bottom of Cariboo Bowl (Treeline 1650m) was 120cm's, -9C @1pm, winds light out of the NW, Overcast and lightly snowing . There was about 5cm's of new snow. The melt/freeze crust was down 80cm's and in this location was solid to ground. The snow above this appeared to be well bonded and did not react to tap tests. On wind affected slopes there was a thick wind slab, the new storm snow sluffed easily. Overall the conditions we good, but you still need to be on the look out for rocks and stumps.
