Cornasty not cornice (but great skiing)

AvCan Northwest, Monday 3rd April, 2023 6:00PM
<p>Today we enjoyed winter-like conditions in the north bowls of Ashman! There is 10 - 15 cm of cold, dry snow over a firm older surface on shady slopes, to as low as 1200m. We saw very little wind affect at the surface. Sunny slopes are a little dust-on-crusty, but generally supportive to skiing. Overall, great skiing! We did see one large natural cornice fall on an east facing slope in the alpine. It did not trigger a slab on the slope below. The cornices at Ashman are large and looming so we stayed well back from them on ridgelines.</p>
