Gusty and warm in Mount Coulthard area (York Creek)

<p>The recent Extreme-Strong winds from the southwest have transported the snow (to Newfoundland), leaving the area either scoured or wind loaded on lee sides in the alpine and treeline. In thinner areas, the facet layers at the base of the snowpack or above the early season crust are still present, but was not reacting in our snowpack tests. Recent warmer temperatures must be helping with bonding. We saw tracks pushing into big terrain that did not trigger avalanches. </p>
