Comments
Spend the last 4 days at Anderson. Conditions changed from deep dry powder to slightly wetter powder to wet snow on the exit (today), but overall snow quality was incredible. Avy conditions also changed along with the snow density. First days were really reactive with about 40cm to 50cm of new snow breaking in hard slabs over the recent rain crust. Hard slabs were triggered easily and propagating to size 0.5, 1 and 1.5, mostly on steep rolling treeline features. Slabs were fast and ran far. Once the storm cleared out we could see naturals all over the steep alpine and sub-alpine features on The Big Top and towards Remo.
*Snowpack at the cabin is currently at 2.75m and the surrounding terrain skied really well.
