Hi
I guided an avalanche crest trip today in Roger's Pass. Great travel and ski conditions.
Weather:
Today: Overcast skies, very light snow accumulation, light winds
Avalanche Activity: limited to sloughing out of steep terrain
In addition to Scott's post on the 25th regarding the surface hoar layer: Up to ten centimetres of light fluff now blankets this surface hoar layer. It is becoming reactive to skier traffic (as fast moving slough) in steeper terrain such as pillows and gullies.
Pay attention to new snow accumulation in the next few days.
