South York

southrockies, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>Went to York (South Crowsnest) today for the first time this year. We suspected low snowpack but it surprised us how little coverage there was in the bowl. Even with the low snowpack in this area, we observed an avalanche that likely occurred on Saturday with the sun and warm temperatures and confirms a report we had from the weekend. The January 17 weak layer created a sun crust on south-facing slopes and was likely the surface that this avalanche slid on. The riding is hard wind-pressed snow, with little coverage off of the SWEET grooming!</p>
