[MCR] Rockies- Kananaskis Snow

Up to 30cm of new snow has fallen along the front ranges of Kananaskis over the past few days.  Along the divide and the Spray/Smith Dorrien areas snowfall amounts are much less with only 5-10cm. 

 

Temperatures are expected to climb back up into the 20’s again later this week so heads up for lots of rockfall being generated as a result of all off this new snow melting and some potential avalanche hazard in smaller confined gullies. 

 

Safe to say that Yamnuska, EEOR and most of the rock climbing around here is off the books for a little while…
