Deep sleddin'

Yukon Field Team, Friday 3rd March, 2023 4:00PM
<p>The winds switched out of the north this morning and temperatures held steady around -10 C with skies clearing throughout the day. Sled conditions were deep above Fraser with 45 cm of storm snow over hard wind effected surfaces. We could see snow moving at ridge tops and actively loading south aspects, and we observed some debris from natural avalanches earlier in the week out of steep terrain. We probed 230 cm at 1200 m and found the crust 1 m down. Very fun riding out there in soft snow...for now. </p>
