Good day out in Haines Pass. We skiied north aspects in Dick creek and found ~10-15 cm of dry powder. 5-10 mm surface hoar had formed to ridge top. Lots of sledders at the popular parking areas. We saw 2-3 deeper slabs that looked fairly recent on lee alpine aspects. 2 of them were north of Nadahinni area in ‘thinner’ snowpack areas and one was previously reported just north of McDonnell peak. This one ran in low angled glaciated terrain which had us thinking twice about a loose plan to head that way…
