Snow Conditions
crusty, heavy, wet

Access to the parking lot was super sketchy, the Kitseguecla FSR was sheer ice, the access road hasn't been plowed for a while, it was rutted and slippery, but improved a bit just before the steeper section. There was light rain in the parking lot, which turned to snow at ~1100m. Around the cabin, visibility was not good, but could see cornices building up on the ridge (mainly on east aspects), and did see some previous avalanche debris in the distance, but couldn't see the crown. Snow around the cabin was soft, wet and heavy. Skiing down was good until ~1300m, terrible below.
