Tabletop Lollypop

christine_aikens, Saturday 8th February, 2025 10:38PM
<p>Toured up Summit Creek to Tabletop. Gusting to strong N wind that eased off in the late afternoon. -19 at the car, didn't seem to warm up much during the day. On the drive out and during the day saw multiple size 1-2 slab avalanches on S and N aspects (see photo of the S facing slopes above Fraser). Party ahead of us remote triggered 2 micro slab avalanches on small pieces of steep terrain while skinning up (see photo - variable thickness of wind slab, bed surface likely rain crust). Lots of whumphing in the meadow and alpine. We avoided all steep slopes. Beautiful sunny day for a tour. </p>
