Beauty day in Crowsnest.. skiing was good also.

North-facing slopes are still delivering! We toured to 2250 m along an alpine ridge. On steep south-facing slopes, the most recent snow was getting moist in the afternoon down 10 to 15 cm. On north-facing slopes, there were isolated pockets of thin wind slabs right at the ridge crest. Once off the ridge, there was 15 to 20 cm of settled soft snow. We did see some wet loose out of extreme steep south-facing slopes likely triggered by the sun warming the rocky terrain. It was clear skies with some clouds forming as we left the field and the wind was moderate from the west with some limited snow being transported around in the alpine directly lee of ridges.
