Hinterland

northrockiesfieldteam, Wednesday 23rd October, 2024 9:33PM
<p>There was impressive new surface hoar growth in the Renshaw today. This could be a new layer of concern once it gets buried by the next storm. The sun was out and the temps were warm which caused trees and rocks to shed their snow creating "pinwheels" on sunny slopes. Though the cloud cover in the afternoon kept the loose wet avalanche problem to a minimum, we saw a few wind slabs that were from the last 24 hrs, one of which was triggered by a rider on Showoff Hill by the cabin. We found good riding and fresh tracks in the less travelled areas in some of the back bowls. </p>
