Log Cabin Spring Fling

Published: Jun 4th, 2026

Fun conditions on log cabin today! Pretty mixed bag in terms of how consolidated the snow pack was. The past few days didn’t get cold enough at night to really lock everything back up, so we kept it chill - low angle - and avoiding major overhead (stuck centre right on the main face). Areas that were heavily wind affected throughout the season were supportive, areas transitioning to shallow were key to avoid.

Tombstone Park

Published: May 13th, 2026

Quick morning trip from the pass to the Goldensides Foresummit. 30 mins of bushwhacking to reach the snow, then easy travel. Good overnight freeze lead to a crust being supportive for skis, not for boots though. Temps around 0 at 6 am, almost bluebird. Clouds moved in by 8 am. Skied down on the hard crust which was fun and good given the otherwise swampy snowpack up here. Saw a few weet loose from the last couple of days and some older slab debris on higher Norths. All in all a fun little exploration up North.

Log Cabin

Published: May 13th, 2026

Quick trip up Log Cabin East. Start at 6:45 at the parking, back at 10. Weather was great with bluebird conditions through the morning hours. Temp below zero at the start, good overnight freeze. Moderate winds with strong gusts above treeline. No new avalanches observed. From 1400 m up some dry wind-transported snow was deposited in lee features and pressed everywhere else. All other elevations and below the little fresh snow everything was well locked in. A few dry turns were had above 1500 m, below we got an epic zipper crust corn which sizzled like a waterfall around us. 9:45 was the perfect timing for the descent today.

Archibald

Published: May 9th, 2026

Skied archibald. Skiing begins at 1400m. Above 1700m hs varies from 80cm to 120cm with pockets of 5-10cm stubborn windslab surrounded by areas stripped to crust. Crust is knife and 5-10cm thick with facets below. A few small sz 1.5 to ground avalanches older then 24 hours on solars observed.

Eclipse Glacier Basecamp

Published: Apr 30th, 2026

Basecamp on/near Eclipse Glacier from April 22-30. 300cm+ on the glacier. Near ridge tops and larger passes snow bridges down to 60-80cm thick, evidence of sagging on the larger transverse crevasses. 30cm+ fresh snow on April 30th. Below this is a mixed interface with many firm wind pressed layers and a few crusts mid/lower snowpack. Lots of bare ice showing on Badham & Donjek faces. Proper boot crampons + ice axe certainly open your options.

Fraser Chutes(ish)

Published: Apr 25th, 2026

Snow appeared to be thick and firm, no signs of instability in the low angle terrain we stuck to. Began deteriorating into slush after 2pm, and pinwheels and sluff were noticed higher in the alpine, especially near rocks.

North slab

Published: Apr 22nd, 2026

Great skiing but not without problems.

Published: Apr 22nd, 2026

We heli skied extensively west of White Pass today and observed the following 1) Recent wind slab/storm slab avalanche cycle to size 3 in northerly alp bowls. These avalanche were observed both in immediate lee features at ridgetop and also in steep moraine features further down slope. One stepped down to deeper weak layers. 2) One cornice collapse resulting in a slab avalanche 3) Wet loose avalanches out of steep south facing alp features 4) We also had a slope settle heavily while entering a run with a crack propagating 50m in either direction of the guides skis. We avoided larger steeper slopes over 35 degrees and areas with the threat of fat to thin snowpack transitions. Excellent skiing still exists in high, sheltered, northerly Alp bowls.

Wet Pow

Published: Apr 20th, 2026

Probably our final tour into the fantail area for this season. Creeks are opening up and water is starting to show in areas. The snowpack was starting to go isothermic towards end of the day and you go straight to the bottom of the snowpack, which made things exciting. The riding was overall good w wet pow to be had for most of the ride. Hopefully the sun comes out so we can go ride some higher elevation alpine slopes.

1800m anvil range

Published: Apr 19th, 2026

10 -15 cm dry fresh on last days fresh snow . decided on distant south facing peak with no apparent name. signifigant wind loading . skiied steep alpine slope to mellow treed slope 1850 m to 11100m deep powder to supported powder all the way to road . every type of spring winter weather seemed to make an appearance today . Anvil mine road a bit of a challenge early am. felt very stable on all aspects . long travel was easy on snow today and stayed firm all day .

Don’t just stand there, buy something!!

Published: Apr 19th, 2026

Snow was getting quite sun affected and sticky. Stayed on mellow slopes. The low clouds in the morning cleared up quickly and made for a beautiful day. Long sleeve cotton tshirt for the up track was a really nice way to stay cool.

Kluane/Dalton Range

Published: Apr 19th, 2026

It was 5°C at the parking lot, with strong winds from the south. The high peaks were cloud-covered, and there was snow being transported everywhere. The sun may have affected the surface of the second avalanche. I don’t think the first one was caused by warming, it was more likely due to significant wind loading. We didn’t see or hear the second slab release, but the debris from the first avalanche was covered by new debris. If we hadn’t stopped, we definitely would have been caught in its path, especially since the terrain was more like a canyon. About 15–20 cm of snow fell on April 14 in the Dalton Range, and this snow is still available for transport. It may be sitting on hard snow and facets. I’ve been skiing in Kluane since a month now and it’s the most unstable snow i’ve seen so far.

Getting Shreducated

Published: Apr 18th, 2026

A great day out shreducating some local motorized users in the Tally Ho area. Felt like a true spring day in the mtns. Solid freeze overnight and mid day warm up to +5 with nice soft afternoon riding conditions. Companion rescue practice in the am and got out in the main zone after lunch. Dug a profile to look at the snow pack. Upper pack 50cm is starting to round while the lower 50cm is still faceted w depth hoar at the base. Sudden collapse and extended column full propagation failures observed at the base of the snowpack. Lots of great teamwork out there and amazing spring riding was had. Get shreducated and enjoy the spring riding. Live4theRush Shred AST

Anvil Mountains

Published: Apr 18th, 2026

good skiing firm underneath 10 cm pow on top . staying above zero but raining in Faro town right now . snow settling with big whoomphs but not goingg anywhere.

King’s Throne Avalanche

Published: Apr 17th, 2026

Bryant Lake Ski Tour

Published: Apr 16th, 2026

We observed wide spread wind-affected snow in exposed areas. The surface was mostly crusty and icy with evidence of recent wind transport. In sheltered areas within the trees the snow was softer and more skiable. We chose to stay on mellow, low-angle slopes within tree line to avoid wind affected and potentially reactive terrain.

Tintina Range

Published: Apr 15th, 2026

3rd day exploring Tintina Range ..getting the hang of it . pushed luck on South facing slope . (thin rocky icy steep,still exhillerating ) Last 2 days skiing noth facing slopes ,beautiful . skiied a true south face today as it seemed high and dry ... much wind affected much sun affected . dry rotten snow fast firm conditions . dry powder in pockets at 1800 m to 1600 and pretty good tree skiinv down to 1000 m . approaches have some deep postholes. disturbed two fat mooses and some cariboos Good look to Rose peak,,skking north face tomorrow , God willing . xo revy

Feather peak

Published: Apr 15th, 2026

Rode Feather peak today. Snow was amazing. 20cm of new powder, was not wind effected or hard at all. Wind was very calm until around 2pm.

sunny Nadahini

Published: Apr 15th, 2026

We saw a Wind slab avalanche, from the last 48 hrs, on a NW aspect at 1150 meters in a rocky shallow pocket. Besides the one wind slab, there were no new avalanches or cornice releases on our travels around Nadahini. The wind has pressed surfaces, but the snow is still soft in protected areas. Our best snow was found on an East aspect, on the glacier in a sheltered area. You can find anywhere from 10-25 centimeters of soft snow, blown in from the wind in places. The wind was blowing most of the day from the SW, transporting snow and building wind slab. We gave cornices a wide berth, and avoided sunny slopes in the pm. There was a little bit of pinwheeling in the afternoon off of steep terrain on South aspects.

Mashed Potatoes

Published: Apr 14th, 2026

Poor visibility kept us close to the trees today. Across the flats crusty surfaces make sledding a bit grabby and hot. The north aspect we skied had ~5-10cm of warm soft snow over a supportive temperature crust that we were not punching through. Ok conditions out there, variable surfaces can make riding a bit nasty.

Big Blue

Published: Apr 13th, 2026

We skied the glaciers in the Big Blue Valley yesterday. Approximately 15 cm of wind-pressed powder over a supportive crust provided good riding conditions on north-facing slopes. Saturday’s warm temperatures produced a thin melt-freeze crust on steeper east- and west-facing aspects that caught direct sun. We observed one recent avalanche (within the past ~72 hours): a size 1 wind slab on a cross-loaded east-facing slope. The slab released below a steep rock face and ran approximately 30 m. South winds began to increase around 14:00, and cloud cover moved in quickly by 15:00.

Burdette 26

Published: Apr 5th, 2026

Long weekend obs from the Burdette zone: Persistent weak layer exists, buried 60cm, ECT14 full propagation, EC5 full fracture. Great snow coverage, best in a number of years. South facing slopes crusty but cold dry snow to be found in sheltered trees and north facing slopes. No naturals observed aside from a release coming from a steep feature with exposed rock, on the way in. On departure day, Monday April 6, storm brought 5-10cm of fresh snow with a good bit of moisture baked in.

Y Not

Published: Apr 4th, 2026

We found great skiing on high glacial terrain on NE asp where storm snow was preserved. Other aspects were more firm and wind affected. Weather was kind to us, mild temps and light south wind, good vis. Strong solar in aft, observed sz1 wet loose in high steep rock South asp with sun. Probed 300 cm on glacier at 1800 m. Top 10 cm settled powder, mod hand shear down 30 cm on old storm interface. Didn’t dig a profile but probing felt hollow down 60 and 120cm, weaker facet layers. Less snow along approach in Y then usual this time of year (still sharks lurking on sled track) seems there has been more north wind stripping this season.

Feather peak

Published: Apr 4th, 2026

Went halfway up Feather. Tiny bit of powder with hard crust underneath. Nice powder conditions on lower side.

Big loop

Published: Apr 5th, 2026

Rode the loop from log cabin, big Y and 1st valley. No new avalanches observed. Aside from flat light, travel conditions were very good. Snow near valley bottom is quite heavy and doesn't seem to have re-frozen overnight, and some snow bridges over creeks are starting to collapse.

Ski Resort

Published: Apr 4th, 2026

Checked out a low angle spot for some poor condition riding, pretty heavy snow and it seems that the layers are slowly beginning to bond. Hiked halfway up and dug two snow pits. Despite the sun blasting us all afternoon, no natural signs of instability were observed. ECT no fractures or propagations observed ~140cm deep @22 degrees CT- fractured at 28 hits at 170cm from the ground @26 degrees snowpack varied between 140- 250cm along the slope on the way back the highway was buried in a size 2 wet snow avalanche stay safe!

Great day at Log Cabin

Published: Apr 3rd, 2026

Great riding today. Hard wind affected snow in the alpine, got softer and fluffier as we got down to the trees. Some (shallow) powder in the trees. Overall a nice mix of conditions. No whumpfing or shooting cracks, no signs of avalanches. Saw a squirrel-like creature, might have been a squirrel.

Snowpack remains weak and faceted.

Published: Apr 3rd, 2026

We skied conservative low angle sheltered TL features to 25 degrees and an alpine slope of 30 degrees that had previously avalanched. All between 900 and 1300m. 2 Large settlements on low angle terrain at around 1100m.

A Peek into Paddy's

Published: Apr 3rd, 2026

We took a quick jaunt up the Paddy Peak area to check on conditions. There were no new avalanches, just the one older slab you can see in the photo. We dug a quick pit on a south facing slope at 1200 m and found a couple of crusts in the upper snowpack. When we get some more sun and warming this spring these crust layers may act as bed surfaces for slabs. We sledded up to the upper end of treeline around 1450 m and found the snowpack still overall pretty shallow and facetted - if you stepped off the sled trail you could find yourself waist deep in facets and standing on the ground. The sleds also trenched down to ground in a few untracked spots.

Recent avalanches

Published: Apr 2nd, 2026

We saw several recent persistent and wind slab avalanches during a heli flight to and around the White Pass area. Some persistent slabs were up to size 2.5. Most of them were on southerly high alpine aspects in thin snowpack areas. They were likely triggered by sun and warming. We also saw a few cornice falls that triggered small size 1 wind slabs below and numerous wet loose avalanches on solar aspects up to size 2.

Wallowing in the facets

Published: Apr 1st, 2026

A much shallower snowpack here in the Wheaton than in White Pass, as usual. On average the depths were around 80 cm and the snow was very unconsolidated and facetted. Stepping off our sleds we would often step right to ground and the sleds would also trench down in places. We dug two pits at different elevations and aspects but got no results in our snowpack tests. We saw no signs of avalanches other than a couple of small wet loose sluffs that likely occurred yesterday. There was less wind effect up high than we were expecting and we managed to find some nice pockets of powder to play in.

Follow the Wolverine

Published: Mar 31st, 2026

We started our day wearing all our jackets in the cold (-20C) but gradually warmed up as the day progressed and the sun had some kick to it. Along with some wolverine tracks, we saw a few small slabs and wet loose avalanches out of steep west through south facing slopes in the afternoon. We dug a quick pit on a NW facing slope at 1700m in the alpine and found no significant layers of concern in our tests. The snow depth there was around 2 meters. The best skiing and sledding we found was in wind sheltered areas where the snow remained soft. It still felt more like winter than spring out there!

Paddy Area. Snowpack Obs.

Published: Mar 30th, 2026

Wind affected surfaces in areas exposed to the main valley. Localised wumfing in low angle shallow areas at lower elevations. Small wind slabs 10-30cm in entrances of steep chutes near ridge top rest over weak faceted layers and gave moderate but clean results in Hand Shear tests.

Sastrugi and wildlife

Published: Mar 29th, 2026

Took a gander at Halcyon on this beautiful sunny Sunday. The top 1-2 cm of snow warmed up to what could be called soft by about 2:00 PM. Otherwise it was wind hammered sastrugi all the way. At about 1350 metres we turned around because we saw what appeared to be some sort of animal in the distance - bear? wolverine? - we didn’t wait to find out. A good reminder to bring bear spray out for spring skiing!

NE Sheltered powe

Published: Mar 29th, 2026

Sunny and cold with the top 5 cm faceted snow from cold nights that made NE facing slopes good to ride - NW had breakable crust - direct south was almost corn but not quite Lovely day out

arno's run

Published: Mar 28th, 2026

Great day, sunny and minimal wind, 20 cm snow on a good supportive layer, wind affected once you got out of the trees but skiable. Below tree line good powder skiing. No signs of instability or avalanches.

Tutshi Chutes

Published: Mar 27th, 2026

Above treeline was wind affected and terrible riding conditions. SW aspects of Tutshi Chutes had amazing powder (varied from 10-60 cm). However, well below treeline we experienced large whumpfing multiple times in steeper open treed areas. Cracks were visible following whumpfing.

Urban Slide

Published: Mar 27th, 2026

bye bye snow

Published: Mar 26th, 2026

Well, heavy winds today, all the good snow is completely rock hard. Rode Big, Y, Big Blue. Found tiny little pocket of 5-8 cm of snow blown into spots.

Sunshine

Published: Mar 22nd, 2026

Super nice riding but my friend got caught in a avalanche every thing went good to get him out and he was safe

sunny powder day

Published: Mar 22nd, 2026

Rode Table Top today. Surprised no one was out there. Snow ranged from 30-50 cm in spots. No signs or triggers of avalanche.

Log Cabin East

Published: Mar 22nd, 2026

Log cabin east side was much better than we anticipated. The snow in the alpine is wind affected but there were many areas where we found between 5 and 10 cm of softer snow up to 1330m. Underneath that layer, there is a very solid slab which I couldn't break with my poles. We noticed a small natural release on the east facing aspect. Pictures attached, both of the same location. One is the general area and the other is zoomed in. Temperatures were stable around -3C all afternoon. We didn't notice any shifts in snow qualities due to the temperature but we noticed previous thaw-freeze cycles (melt crusts) in the alpine. No signs of instabilities on the low angle slopes we rode. There is good powder down in the trees.

Y not

Published: Mar 22nd, 2026

Fantastic riding up the Big Y and beyond. Lots of small loose avalanches in steep terrain, all aspects and a small number of size 1 slab releases as well. More small slides were starting to release from rocky areas in steep south aspects by early afternoon.

Blower pow

Published: Mar 20th, 2026

Today on our drive we saw a size 1 wind slab avalanche in paddys peak area , on a steep shoulder feature in a gully. We avoided wind slab in alpine and stuck to sheltered areas where the snow was best. 10 new centimeters fell overnight with south west winds. We took a chance with the visibility and poked back to Big Blue area. There was 20-40 centimeters of beautiful snow in the valleys. We found no signs of propagation potential in our snowpits on a south and east aspect around 1600 meters. There are a few layers of concern but they were stubborn.

Light dusting of Vitamin D

Published: Mar 19th, 2026

The sun made a temporary appearance and it was glorious. Temps were up to -4. Lots of good snow to be had. The clouds rolled in mid day and then started snowing again.

A sliver of light

Published: Mar 19th, 2026

We made it up to 1360 meters in the Big Y drainage , thanks to a small break in the clouds. We were able to dig on a north aspect at 1360 meters with no results of concern. The winds were gusting to 30 km / hr from the south around noon. We saw a size 1 dry loose avalanche out of steep terrain, but besides that no new natural avalanches observed . There was 20-30 centimeters of soft snow in protected lower alpine terrain. This snow is sitting on a firm surface but seems to be bonding well. We did not find wind slab today in tree line.

Tutshi Trees

Published: Mar 18th, 2026

Amazing deep powder below treeline seeming quite stable. As soon as you get out of and at treeline wind slabs become widespread with major whumpfing and drum like sounds. Evidence of naturally failed wingslabs before the most recent snowfall (see pics of max 1m thick crown line propagating about 100-150m). Fun day out

It ain't easy being cheesy

Published: Mar 18th, 2026

Over the hood for pretty much the whole day. The ticket is in the trees while we wait for the sun to make an appearance again. Was a chilly start. -20 plus a light south wind. Another 5cm last night. Warmed up to -8 during the day. If your keen to get a little more educated when travelling through the backcountry via motor then check us out. Live4theRush Shred AST Based in Whitehorse
