We explored the back of Burridges accessed from the high country to the west dropping down into the canyon near the pin. Conditions on top were stellar with 2-4 cm of powder over a firm crust. Conditions in the trees and lower down were variable with 2 cm powder over a non-supportive crust. The upper canyon has 2-3 size 1 avalanches along the lee(west) wall undoubtedly caused by this weeks rain event. This event also collapsed most of the larger cornices along the high country route.
