Fries and Gravy
Spring ski on fries and gravy dsy after mild refreeze. 3 runs between 1130 am and 5 pm. Initial run very firm and icy at top. As day progressed with temps rising to 5c conditions softened. Typical breakable crust on convex features above increasing as temperatures rose. Some old avalanche debris mid run. On uptrack conditions remained firm with very solid base layer.

Our teams final field day for the season. Sunshine, and low avalanche hazard provided a nice run off the east facing side of the Trout River Bowl. New snow over the last couple days has refilled previous ski tracks. The bowls snowpack has grown a little since last weekend and should hold up for sometime yet. We found heavy snow conditions, breakable crust, soft damp snow, hard surfaces, but enjoyable skiing non the less. All new surface snow conditions seemed well bonded to the widespread hard crust underneath. My partner did manage to pick his way up the ascent on skis without too much trouble, I walked. Skiing out from the base requires cautious and limited terrain options, but still reasonable. We gave the drainage some space in these deteriorating spring conditions, and would be weary around that feature moving forward. Although our season deteriorated quickly, it’s easy to appreciate what this feature provides to our spring ski community. Three other parties up there today, we all got a sun tan:)

Stellar stunner bowl days
Back and forth between hard powder and crusty icy sections. Great conditions in the bowl with a nice bootpack up. Recentish avalanche filled the middle with debris, mostly skiable but the best and safest laps are on the west aspect. Hard and wind effected slabby snow but not bad riding.

Pretty alright all things considered. The snows hiding in the trees, 5-10cm of supported fluff on the concrete from last week's rains. Worth it for mellow turns, not much left where it's exposed and lots of sharks to keep an eye out for.

Still Bowlin.
Went for a walk into the Trout River Bowl. Supportive crust and rock made for easy access into the base, from here we found high-quality snow and good skiing on the eastern flanks. Debris from recent avalanche activity has the rest of the bowl out of optimal conditions, but still a solid snowpack up there moving forward. On the east facing slope, we did note some soft slab instabilities, but no signs of propagation. Two other parties on their way up there today as we were on our way down at 1 PM. Suspect snow in the upper bowl stayed dry despite strong solar input today.

We walked into the bowl this morning. Access from the parking lot is no longer skiable. Once into the bottom of the bowl, still good overall coverage that should hold up for sometime yet. Icy/crusty surface conditions had us wearing crampons while ascending the east shoulder. 2-4 cm of new snow sitting on surface with no signs of wind effect, and good bonding to the crust below. Was snowing when we left just after noon, light winds from the east. no avalanche problems up there today. Great to see the bowl should provide some good spring skiing!!!

SW Gulch
A great day to be moving around the SW Gulch area. The access trail is still in great condition. Despite strong solar effects today, the snow stayed loose and dry at higher elevations. 10-20 cm of powder in wind protected areas like Picatenirife glades, sitting on a thick widespread crust. Bonding at this new snow/crust interface seem to be excellent everywhere we looked today. No new avalanches obsevered, but we did note strong W winds at rigdgetop and snow being transported and loaded into E, NE, N aspects.

Great travel into the Lewis Hills from Corner Brook. Trails were in superb condition. Once in the hills, flat light and more hazard(rock, holes) kept us from venturing to far in, but we found good stability and no avalanche problems to note. New snow sitting on the crust from last weeks rain or exposed crust was the story up high. Good bonding b/t new snow and this crust. Best sledding conditions found in protected areas from the wind.

East side KD was very low tide. Many exposed stumps and blowdowns. Maybe some ok turns inside but getting in and out not worth it. Snow conditions were wet pow on a wet, not quite frozen crust. Still some large cornice over east aspect, no sign of avalanche activity, but the light was poor and hard to see the alpine.

The snow pack in the Tablelands has taken a significant blow. Strong warm winds and rain have a lot of water moving, and have exposed more ground at lower elevations and windward slopes. We saw a couple new slab avalanches on north facing alpine slopes. Expect wet surface snow conditions at all elevations as the day progresses.

A morning of rescue practice around “The Knob”. Currently great coverage and what looked to be good skiing. Around 11pm the snow turned to freezing rain which quicky formed a catchy surface crust. We found all of our transceivers, but lost our minds to the intricacies of complex rescue scenarios.Time well spent.

10 Mile Trees
Great day in back of 10 Mile Pond w/ Andy & Steve. My first time in there. Outstanding conditions! The crust layer is well buried now and not solid, could carve into it. With about 20-40cm of new snow that either fell overnight (with no wind) or has blown in the last few days. Made for some of the best turns of the year.
The day was both cool and warm, with a few short sunny periods that risked quickly changing the snow quality, especially at the top of the run where the trees stop. These sunny breaks were short lived and ultimately didn't have a major effect on where we were riding.

Upper Ten Mile
Great travel through Ten Mile Fiord to the upper valley today. 15-20 cm of new low density snow has been distributed around upper elevations by recent West winds. Wind exposed areas are striped of new snow exposing a crust from recent warm weather, while East facing lee features have been heavily loaded. At higher elevation was more snow, and protected areas held fantastic riding conditions. We noted a few Size 1 slab avalanches on S-SE aspects that looked fresh from this morning, but found good stability riding areas not affected by wind.

10-20 cm of wind transported snow over a supportive crust. Ski conditions were fantastic after the depressing fain event of Feb 28. We saw two recent Size 1 avalanches that appeared to be triggered by cornice breaks. New cornices are quickly developing on lee slopes. Slopes below 400 meters were not as pleasant to ski with a nasty collapsing crust.

Snow becoming deeper and more supportive in the woods.

Hall Pass
Originally planned for an objective on the south facing side of Ten Mile, but the sun was packing a punch and created damp surface conditions. This, added to the fact that there was 20cm new snow from overnight, caused us to adjust our objective and ski Hall Pass on the north facing side. This proved to be the right call as we listened to, and watched multiple avalanches tumble down the sunny slopes across the fjord. Not only did our choice keep us out of harms way, but we were also treated to an incredible run of deep, stable, blower powder!!
Of note is the fact that the two crux sections of the run are not as full as other seasons, resulting in two mandatory drops over frozen waterfalls. The drops are small and the snow is deep (currently) so shouldn’t pose too much problem, but be prepared to get sporty!

Difficult surface conditions made for poor skiing in the bowl today.

Ten Mile
Hopes on getting to the upper Valley, but stopped due to difficult trail breaking conditions above the “Steady”, around 500 m. The trail is in good condition to the high point, with deeper snow as elevation is gained in the valley. Was very weary to get off the trail as there are still stumps and rocks very present in the low density snow. Within the valley we found 20 to 25 cm of new snow sitting on more supportive snow below. An even distribution of new snow with little wind effect, makes for what looks like fantastic skiing. No avalanche problems noted today, and no avalanches in this valley observed.

Burridges Gulch
Loads of snow in Burridges now! 165cm where we changed over about 2/3 of the way up the glade. 100cm in open meadows at the bottom. The fluffy snow from the storm is already settling and quite dense but great riding.
Worth noting, there was a significant crust layer on top caused by some freezing rain for the first half of the skin in - especially in open spaces. Once we crossed the river and into the gulch it was gone, but if other nearby areas had the same isolated freezing rain last night, it would make for poor riding. We were skeptical on the way in but snow quality improved dramatically.

Glades had some goods, weird crust from either fog or some freezing rain in open areas, but the further in the gorge/in the trees we got, the better the powder was; didn't go up but suspected alpine and exposed areas would get pretty crusty.

After being hammered for several days with very high westerly and south west winds the trees held the snow.
A mixture of supportive powder in trees and wind affected concrete and styrofoam in the open. We rode the trees on lookers left and avoided main chute.
Pit depth of about 170cm at the lower midsection of main chute, 35-40 degree slope. Hard packed 10-15cm layer at top, softer 10cm layer below. Alternating to hard and then soft again about 50cm down. 3 main weak points of about 30-40cm slabs at 45cm, 80cm and 120cm.
Pat test caused cracks about 15cm from top after 2nd pat from elbow. More cracks at 5th about 40cm down.
