Kris Irwin and I guided a group up Boundary Pk yesterday. 0C at the
campground at 5am and a good supportive crust made for excellent
conditions.Great coverage still on the glacier.

There was an impressive ice avalanche that swept the normal approach
to the north side of Athabasca some time in the past few days. If you
ever wondered if you were giving the overhead hazard a wide enough
berth, take a close look at the attached photo!
