Went for a walk up to Sherbrooke Lake. 10-20cm coverage on summer trail made for barely enough but happy to find the lake was frozen so we went over to the morraines. On average around 40cm depth above the lake elevation with some areas catching up to 80cm. Surface wind affect above treeline made for a little grabby skiing but a nice sunny morning made the cold start pleasant enough. The ski down through slide path trees above the lake was a little tricky with thin coverage. Skied down summer trail with skins on and scraped a few rocks. Overall a nice walk but wouldn't recommend.
