Deep in the Caribous

<p>Started as a great day in the mountains. 20-30cms overnight on top of the weeks snow. Winds calm to moderate depending on time and location. Avg -6 in alp with some very nice sunny breaks. Worked our way into bigger terrain by testing slopes of low consequence, test profile and lots of unexposed riding. Slabbing in alpine from previous winds although areas unexposed to wind were amazing. No cracking, whumping or any signs noted throughput the day. During a sunny spell at days end we were traveling down an alpine slope and the second rider went well outside of the intended route and triggered a sz3. No burial. See incident report and pics. Another sledder remote seen on the way out, same aspect and elevation. Believe the warm suny spells played a part in the increased activity but the Feb pwl is alive and well and needs respect.</p>
