Crowfoot glades are skiing well, and if you’re willing there are still lots of good times to be had! We noticed some soft slabs in the new snow on convex rolls, but nothing that worried us. Saw some folks putting ski tracks into the alpine as well. On our way back to the car we saw a size 2 natural releasing from Central Crowfoot but our viewpoint didn’t allow us to see whether the impact stepped down to the deep persistent layer but we assume so based on the noises we heard. Heads up to folks heading to the parkway, bring some shovels to make parking spots for yourself!
