Crowsnest wind slabs

southrockies, Tuesday 9th January, 2024 3:50PM
With 20 cm of recently accumulated new snow being redistributed by strong southwest winds and low visibility we kept it pretty mellow today. The new snow was a bit upside down (a little heavier snow over lighter snow). On our way up as we transitioned into more open terrain we noticed some cracking, but not shooting cracks. Some quick tests on the way up confirmed the storm snow needs some time to settle and bond.
