Excellent travel into the Blow Me Downs via Frenchman’s Cove. Overall coverage continues to get better, providing excellent sledding today. 10-20 cm new snow over a solid right side up snowpack. We were looking for a buried crust/facet combo we observed a couple days ago in the LewisHills, but could not detect it in this area today. Moderate to strong West winds today, with lots of snow on the move. New wind slab forming on E aspects, but did not see much in the way of reactivity on the slopes we tested today. Numerous size 1 slab avalanches likely from the previous 48 hours. We were drove out of the hills early in the afternoon due to white out.
