Pretty good skiing at Fraser. Lots of cloud pulsing in and out from Lynn Canal shrouding Cleveland/Feather area, but a nice hole around the Canadian customs zone as is so often the case. Looks to be about 10-15cm new since the weekend. Probed over 2m in isolated areas at around 1300m, but overall snow depth varies between 80-150cm on south east facing slopes. Easy shears in the new snow and another easy result down 50cm but did not find the crust/facet combo in today's single quick pit. Very large whumpf at around 1400m but no propagation and no other avalanche activity observed.
