Quick Observation

Fresh avalanche debris from a size 2 avalanche in gully directly below Silk Tassle, with the start zone above the ice climb. Avalanche occurred some time between when the snow finished falling yesterday afternoon and this morning before our approach. Fresh debris was witnessed in the Super Boc gully on the south side of Hwy 1. Looked like 10 cm of fresh snow in Field, considerably less than what fell at Castle Junction. Avalanche forecast of mod, mod, low, seemed spot on to mention to stay out of avalanche gullies after the fresh snowfall yesterday. Temperatures were a bit warmer than forecasted as per usual once at Field, partly cloudy, -5 C upon arrival, -1 C when returned to the car. Ice was slushy on the surface but no snice!
