Fraser Field Observation Day

<p>As part of YAA's field training day we went up from the road at Fraser a little ways to dig a snow profile and observe the conditions along the way. There was a very hard and think melt/freeze crust. Snow on steeper slopes facing the sun was soft. Noticed a few small avalanches in the area, unsure of how old they were. Some were on NE facing slopes below cornices, others were on south facing slopes below rock faces. Weather was above warm and sunny with light/moderate winds from the N/NE.</p>
