Obs from today's AST course at Fraser: Thursday's 15cm were not wind affected down low and gave some nice conditions for boondocking. Visibility was nil up at Bryant Lake so we stuck to the trees below. Snowpack tests on an east-facing slope in the glades below Bryant gave: CTM11(SP) and ECTP4(SC) both down 35cm at the crust-facet interface that others have posted about last week. New snow has not slabbed up and no signs of instability while sledding on the flats around Bryant Lake and below Fraser Chutes.
