Snow Conditions - Sunshine Backcountry March 4th

For those of you still hunting for snow, I was ski touring out of bounds yesterday (March 4) at Sunshine ski resort with fellow guide Fred Amyot and a group of Thompson Rivers University students.
There was a light freeze overnight making for reasonable ski travel.  At noon the air temperature was +11C at 2200m. Some broken cloud cover helped reduce the solar effect.  By 3:00pm we were breaking through the crust below 2300m as we skied back inbounds.  There was up to 115cm of snow at 2200m, but lots of bare patches showing!
