Skied a line just outside Sun Peaks boundary today. Good quality for what little snow we have. 65 to 115cm obs depending on location on these NE, tree-line slopes. Mid Nov SH layer (3cm) preserved and producing ECT16(SP) & PST24/100 End down 32cm. Lots of whoomfing & cracking while touring. Stayed clear of steeper convex roles and unsupported slopes. Obs evidence of explosive control to size 1 on adjacent slope.
