Holy shit. 10 foot?

That link's showing up all over the place right now, Lee. Thanks for posting it here. A fine little reminder to think about this year's lovely November crust that's going to stick around with us until...?

Just another reason to be particularly thoughtful out there this year...

Thankfully here in Fernie it is down, just far enough that it shouldn't react to a skier. but we all know that at some stage this season it will react and I expect a similar crown. We've had may wet slides on that layer, and no don't many more to come.

The horrifying magic of delamination. Those photos are very neat.

and a couple more from this year. Be safe!
