Tryst Chutes

eric.bondy, Thursday 8th December, 2022 5:20PM
<p>Skied Tryst Chutes today - 20cm of fresh light powder observed at ridgetop. We dug a pit at the top of the ridge and observed weak layer approximately 40cm down in snowpack - total depth at ridgetop recorded at 80cm. Good skiing with deep powder down through trees and little wind. Further up valley near superslope terrain was much more wind affected. A size 1.5 slid naturally in this area and ran to valley bottom while we were in the area. </p>
