<p>We went on snowshoes to check out conditions in the Kananaskis (Mt. Rae). HS55, 3 layers of crust but of concern (for the future) were 8cm of small facets at ground level (1mm). CTM (13, 14 on 25cm down), a bit of cracking (small, centralized). The lower crusts were non-reactive to tests.
Please be careful out there and realize that what is above you can be triggered and come down on you. </p>
