Comments

Spent most of the day on sleds near Bryant lake and also buzzed over to meadows west of log cabin. Tons of new snow, 30-40cm since midnight Friday. Heavy down low but drier above 950m. Poor vis restricted observations but we were starting to see shooting cracks in the storm snow by mid afternoon. Periodic moderate north wind, so expect some wind slabs formed today.
