[MCR] Revelstoke Area Snow Conditions June 28

Out for a short rescue flight this evening, flying from Revelstoke west to the Boulder Mountain / Turbo Hill area.  Snowline is between 1800 and 1900 meters.  Still some snowmobile traffic on Boulder Mountain which was the reason for the rescue flight.  Soft snow at 1900 meters, but quite supportive. 

 

Warm, 24 degrees at 1900 meters at 9 pm.  Creeks are running at flood levels and would make for interesting and dangerous crossings.
