Haines Pass Kusawak Peak Area

<p>CRS (plus) sled course based out of Chuck Creek. Group travelled across highway to unnamed bowl south of Kusawak Peak. From the high point of our day we could see 3 guardsman to the south. Even the 2002 tundra 300 made it ! Observed a couple of size 1 + and 2 slab avalanches at around 1900 m on a SW aspect and numerous small to medium loose wet avalanches on various aspects. Slab avalanches were a few days old. Loose wet avalanches fresh. Overall quite a different snow pack than the whitepass. See snowpack section for more info. </p>
