Stranger Danger

<p>Early in the day we witnessed a significant cornice failure estimated 60cm-70cm triggering a 1.5-2 slab avalanche across the high alpine. Higher winds than expected, especially in the higher alpine, causing sublimation and wind loading on west aspects played a significant role in changing our plans for the day. Untouched powder was tempting, but risk vs reward was too high. Perhaps another day. Blue skies allowed for plenty of travel to explore new terrain for this group, and gave us incredible views of Mt Robson and Kinbasket Lake from above Morning Glory. </p>

<p>We observed several sled triggered avalanches as well as natural slides today in Clemina. All of which slid to rock on steeper alpine slopes. We enjoyed a great blue bird day of riding powder in the trees. </p>

Clemina,Goat ridge bowl

<p>Watched a group of 7 trigger avalanche in goat ridge bowl. Unsure of involvement. Considerable size(2.5). Group was pushing the terrain considering the ratings of the day.</p>

Clemina

<p>Had an ambitious trip plan in the morning, dug a test profile at 2100m, north facing aspect. We found sudden collapse compression test results, down 50cm. With full propagation on the same layer in an extended column test. We suspect this layer is the January 5th surface hoar. We adjusted our trip plans and decided to go play in some sheltered mellow trees. </p>

Clemina creek adventure

<p>We headed out in the morning with some sun and an ambitious plan. Unfortunately the sun disappeared and the clouds rolled in and we changed the trip plan. Decided to investigate the snow with a test profile at 2000m. North aspect with an HS of 140cm. We noticed consolidation in the recent storm snow. Test results were repeated sudden collapse down 44 cm on surface hoar. When taken to an extended column test we saw full propagation. We were quite surprised to find in our windows of visibility no new signs of avalanche activity! Although we didn’t see any activity we still have little trust after our tests. </p>

Land-Mina

<p>We spent the day under snowy skies while riding in the Clemina area. A weak, sugary snowpack felt like bottomless powder but our tracks were actually trenching along near the ground narrowly avoiding objects hidden in the snow. These sugary crystals, called facets, bond poorly to each other leaving a soft unsupportive snowpack. Facets not only struggle to hold up sleds but their weak bonds can leave lingering problems in the lower snowpack. This could be a problem later when new snowfalls load this sugary base. With poor visibility we rode the open grassy meadows to avoid wrecking sleds on the obstacles (stumps down low, rocks up high) littering cutblock and alpine slopes. </p>
