[MCR] Northern Selkirks

[Public Mountain Conditions Report]

Conrad Janzen, Chris Gooliaff and I spent March 3-10 guiding in Sorcerer Lodge in the northern Selkirks. 

Ski quality was good all week and we received about a meter  of snow in two separate storms, with settlement rates in this storm snow in the 50% range. 

Due to a touchy surface hoar layer probably now buried 70-100 cm deep we skied either heavily forested terrain (no glades) or open slopes of less than 30 degrees with no overhead hazard.

We observed shooting cracks, whumpfing and avalanches size 1-3 every day.
