Skied in a bowl up the West Perry road west of Tumbler Ridge. Dug a quick pit. Hs 75 cm. 60 cm powder on top of October melt/freeze crust. Powder is well bonded to the crust. Easy failure at 15 cm, probably on surface hoar. Windy from the SW, loading the lee slopes. Skied easy slopes and had fun in wind pressed powder.
