Comments
We found nice powder to ride in the early hours on low-angle sheltered upper elevation terrain on northern aspects. By midday, warming had taken it's toll and the snow was starting to cream up and feel heavy underfoot. We saw some rollerballs and pinwheels as we exited Franklin Basin on the way back to the parking area. We did not experience collapses or cracking on today's tour.
