[MCR] Snow from the Lake Louise/O'Hara divide to Canmore.

Climbed Mt. Victoria to the sickle today. COLD!!! -7c and steady winds around 25-40kmh. Hard to estimate snowfall but average is probably around 5cms by 2pm today above 2800m. This snow could disappear in most places if the sun comes out before the storms ramp up.

 

Small, scattered windslabs but they are still sticking to the rough ground. Might be a bit spooky if you walked into a drift on an alpine ice face in the next couple of days.

 

Driving between O'Hara and Canmore this afternoon(monday)snowfall was varied but visible in most places above treeline.
