Powder chutes

<p>Good day's skiing in the Fraser Chutes. Consistent moderate winds gusting to strong from the South built windslab through the day. Ski quality below 1200m was excellent. Above that elevation surface quickly transitioned to firm, with a breakable crust. The TL gullies were cross-loading impressively through the day, and a Ski cut onto a lee feature triggered an size 1, with a 40-50cm crown height and good propagation. It was a great day to enjoy some short 'mini-golf' ski laps with plenty of deep turns, and leave the alpine for another day...</p>
