[MCR] Lesser Flute, Whistler

Spent yesterday on Lesser Flute. Excellent ski conditions.  At 1800m the height of snow is about 2 meters. By 2:30 air temps were -16 with high humidity. Brrrr. Within the snow pack stability tests gave hard and moderate results with one easy test 20cm down from the surface within a fist density layer. Yesterday afternoon I rated the Hazard at tree line as Moderate, and the Stability at Tree line as Good.  The northerly and outflow winds started to effect the area at around 1pm.
