[MCR] Tryst Lake Kananaskis

[Public Mountain Conditions Report]

 Skied at Tryst Lake today.  We were the
first ones in there since the newest snowfall report of up to 25cm.  




Weather: We had a sunny day with
temperatures reaching -8 at tree line at noon, it felt warmer at the
vehicle.   Light winds today.   Evidence of moderate snow
redistribution due to wind during or after the snowfall.  




Avalanche Activity: Only one chute (the
one closest to the fist) had evidence of a small sluff that ran from
the start zone about 15 meters down.  Otherwise nothing else has
moved yet. 




Travel Conditions: The existing uptrack
was still visible with only about 15cm on it in most places and
otherwise fully covered in exposed areas.  The chutes themselves are
loaded at their top and large drifts exist at various entrances.  We
skied the tree run off to the side of the chutes and did not venture
into the chutes.  Previous ski tracks were well covered and could
only partially be felt underfoot.  Ski quality was excellent with up
to knee deep fluffy powder.



Enjoy with care, especially if the
forecasted 20 to 40cm comes in tonight!
