Lots of laps in Fraser chutes to burn off the turkey. Ski quality very good. Sun was a bonus. Some wind effect in alpine since Wednesday storm, we found the best skiing below 1200m. Soft windslab in top 10-15 cm in alpine within storm snow layers. In the trees at 1050m snow depth is 220cm and the thick early Dec crust is now down 110cm at this elevation. Ski pen ~20cm, Boot pen 50cm in sheltered areas. Temp was steady -8c thru day with nil wind. Sunny with valley fog.
