Avalanche.ca was calling for 20-30 cm last night and 40-60 cm today, with the freezing level going to 1600 m this afternoon. When I arrived there was sleet at the bottom and snowing higher up. Had two great hours of fresh tracks on the fat skis this morning. There was about 5 cm of powder at the bottom and 25 cm higher up. Some nice turns on Upper Bowen, Horizon, Humpty, Jasey Jay and others, then later was first down Tomcat when the Sky Chair opened around 10 am. I was the third one down Top Gun which was superb. I left around 11 am and there were three police cars and three fire trucks coming up the Cypress Bowl Road with their sirens and lights on. No idea what they were responding to. Perhaps someone else knows.
