Hi,
It was a very nice day flying yesterday on January 16th in the Tantalus Range , Black Tusk and Garibaldi Neve. We did not observe any natural avalanches on the Tantalus North side and Garibaldi North-East face, Atwell East. We did observe a large fracture line on the East/South side of South Ridge of Garibaldi, at elevation 2580m, just below the big cornice which probably caused the slide. Glaciers were covered similarly to observances in previous December seasons. The bergshround on Garibaldi is well covered and from my previous experiences, you can skin all the way to the summit. Strong winds from last week has brought some hazards for the rest of the season...
