Lake Louise - Mt. Niblock

Mountain Conditions Report

<p>We had Variable ski conditions at Mt. Niblock today.<br /> Below 1800m, there was a breakable melt freeze crust with 5cm of fresh snow. The bowl has been heavily wind affected and HS varies from rock surface to 280cm. </p> <p>We did a number of hand shear test at the wind affected snow. Half of them breaking and the other half resulting in resistant planar, but slab sizes weren’t consistent across the slope. </p> <p>We chose to rope up near the glacier due to varying snow depth.</p> <p>No avalanche activity observed. </p> <p>TRU Ski Tour 3<br /> Report by Jonas Grabowski and Miranda Mueller</p>
