Kootenay

<p>Realy great conditions on N'ish aspects along 93S. Around 2,500m, it was knee deep with face shots galore. That being said, if you're thinking of doing Vermillion, think again - it looked like a ski resort this afternoon. Loose dry's were top of mind today given the forecast and they were quite reactive. Any steeper line we rode (35-40') easily entrained 30cm+ over the prior interface. The sluff had quite a bit of mass, but was slow so manageable. Minimal wind affect in the alpine. Of note though, I punched through a facet hole (with skis on) on a ridge at 2,500m and had to climb out of my 2m deep hole - something to keep in mind. A day that was definitely comparable to some of our best days at Roger's Pass.</p>
