<p>Wicked day going up the avy path at surprise pass. We were a group of 11 skiers, tracked out the run quite well.
Snow depth ranged from 150cm at the base to 225cm at 2200m.
A faceted 3cm crust was found 40cm down in the lower open trees. A crust 50cm down was felt at 2200m but did not investigate.
No signs of wind effect noticed. </p>
