Good News from the Alpine...there is anywhere from 6" to 2ft of new snow in different areas. Barnes is supposed to be in great shape as well as Limestone. Backside of Limestone is set up and fast and Jerome Bowl has less new snow. Rain Gauge is wind loaded a bit but has good new snow. Watch the cornices and terrain traps - supposedly they look a bit ominous so the center trees is first pick. Trails are yucky, hard, icy but per usual they get better the farther down the Flathead you go. Pipeline would maybe be worth a look right now while the new stuff is on it - no guarantees but if you can get off it into the trees I bet it would be good.
Our riders met up with some guys riding in from Fernie side and they said Morrisey & Harvey is good.
Check the avalanche report at www.avalanche.ca to see what changes have occured with the new conditions here and take a look around before throttling up.
Down here at the Inn - it got to +4 and the new stuff set up, iced up and melted so don't be deterred by what you see below 5000 ft. Still NO RAIN. I was in Calgary today and it was +14. You come into the Pass and its like a line drawn - snow on one side. Cheers!
