Quick Observation

errific skiing at Fraser Peak, big kahuna! Measured 34cms of storm snow over previous wind crust that fell over the past week. No wind slab. Light was in and out but good enough that we went back up for a second lap. Access via east ridge was 20cms of new snow over supportive crust. No signs of instability were seen or felt on our day but we did see point releases on rocky sun exposed south facing and east facing areas that likely released during solar affect on previous days. Cloud cover kept solar radiation to a minimum. Minus 4 when we left the car and plus 4 when we arrived made for some corn skiing for the exit run.
