How's the cold weather holding up out there? It's cold on the Alberta side. Just concerned about frost on the snow, etc... Avy conditions. Should there be much concern? I'll keep posted via the Can Avy website, but just wondering what the locals and people riding think?

-33 This morning:realmad:

Up to -20 now

The snow is looking ok with the cold, but its very light and dry, where not windblown, so it will depend on what happens to the weather. Keep updated on the CAA Website.

Up in a bird today getting some information reguired for safety plans for staff and groomer. Here are a few shots, one of goat ridge, one of allan

The trails are in amazing shape with this colder weather and for the short time we were in clemina, the snow was quite good with nice dry powder !

Great looks like a cool place to play. It Goats Ridge south east of the cabin oposite direction of dixons glacier then? About 2 or 3 Km as the crow would fly?
