Returning south, coming home!


After spending the last 6 months in Nunavut, it was time to fly back south. On November 8, I was heading home.



'Lo and behold, it was a sign! I had returned to Rogers Pass! I love the colder air of the interior vs the coast, and the ice crystals that hang in the sky on a clear day!



Went skiing with Henke up in the basin behind Avalanche Crest. Managed to remote trigger a size 3 slide from 400m away! We were creeping back down the hill after that one. The following day, people were skiing similar aspects up the Connaught drainage and not seeing the spookiness that we had. Spatial variability...keep your eyes open!

"Every trip must have a bag of chips!" Vern exclaims!



Marty, loving the interior fluff.



The interior fluff, stuck on Marty's face, after a run of sweetness.



Finished for another day, the gang will return at a later date.
