Fraser Peak and Summit Creek

Took the sleds out today for a tour around Fraser and to Summit Creek area. Skied Big Kahuna in the morning and found mainly good snow in the run, boot deep slightly wind affected powder over a wind (or melt freeze?) Crust. The top part of the line had however been hit by south wind with harder windpressed snow/wind slab which was uncreative to many ski cut. We did however found a small pocket of deeper wind slab that released with ski cuttint on a north aspect at 1350m while climbing and gaining the ridge. In the summit creek area we round similar snow conditions. Deep powder at treeline transitioning to slightly wind affected snow in the alpine. Skied a steeper run (zamboni couloir) on the south side of taiya. Numerous sluffs and small avalanche up to size 1 were seen likely 24 to 48hrs old. Triggered one small isolated shallow wind slab on the way down that propagated 10m or less. Otherwise no other signs of instability were noted. Sledding conditions were very good lower down at treeline and on glaciers. Of interest to sledders and skiers, although the snowpack is deep at highway elevation there are still a lot of rocks in the alpine that are perfectly buried under this nice snow and ready to wreck your day.
