Hoy hoy mousaillons, hopped in early in the powder ship at kicking horse mtn resort to have a taste of that promised blower pow. 20 min later one gondola fell off the cable (rip KHMR). Still early in the day we decided to venture up the slack country in our blower pow quest. Toured up all the way up to Reudis ridge and then noticed some avalanche debris in the fans from maybe yesterday/last night storm. After mitigation and dropping some decent sized cornices into the couloir we felt comfortable skiing. Nothing really moved while skiing the couloir but then I arrive to a size 3 (maybe ?) avalanche debris pretty much wall to wall in Reudis north bowl. Went up to Molars and saw similar avalanche debris on the north side. Molars south already slid with the solar input. Heads up out there captains, the ship is very wobbly and might be sinking already!
