Backside of Mt Fernie

Great day out behind Mt Fernie skiing NE aspect. 5-15 cm of fresh on top of crust from 1000 to 1700m. Great powder above 1700m with no concerning observations. Lots of old slide debris skinning up the Mt Fernie drainage from about 1150 to 1500 m

Very calm day, overcast and hard to see above 1900 m. Steady snow all day.

ECN23, Rutshblock test: 2 RP releases 20 and 50 cm into the snowpack. The layers did not fully release and slide off the column. We felt very comfortable skiing conservative slopes and observed no other signs of instability.
