With friends, I drove the Icefields Parkway between Canmore and Tangle Ridge.

At 0600h temps ranged from 6C in Canmore to -2C at Castle Jct to 4C at the 
Icefields.

At 1400h temps ranged from 4C at the Icefields to 2C at Parker's Ridge to 13C 
at Castle Jct.

On the drive back, we observed numerous new avalanches that had occurred during 
our morning recreation, to sz 2.5 on predominantly  lee aspects. The cloud 
cover was mainly overcast this morning. We also drove through scattered rain 
and snow showers with limited accumulation. The forecasted spring cycle is here 
and active.
