Telkwa Range

Today we rode in the Telkwas. Snow coverage is good here, with anywhere from 125-180cm of snow where we probed today. We dug several snowpits and found the November surface hoar anywhere from 50-70 cm below the snow surface. In compression tests, we were getting moderate results. The alpine was wind-scorred here, but sheltered places at treeline were still holding good snow. We observed an old cornice-triggered avalanche from greater than 72 hours ago.
