General Observations
The snow is heavily wind effected along the road, especially on the northern side of the range with warm chinook winds starting last night at the Black Rapids Lodge and melting a surprising amount of snow.
I still saw lots of wind protected snow further up the Canwell Valley, but low southern aspects are starting to show a bit of glare, probably a suncrust. I saw multiple small point releases, and rollers coming down below exposed rocks on southern faces and the sun felt very pleasantly warm. Spring is here!
