Went up to pedley to do some skiing and the conditions are still pretty great for almost mid may. There is a cm or 2 on top of a thick supportive crust, and the snowpack is uniform and strong💪 A storm came in in the late morning and it started snowing pretty good. We dropped in the bowl and had a good time!

Snowpack depth was around 180-200cm where the trail goes to the tarn and the snowpack was really stable!💪
