Came out of Assiniboine today.. I am estimating that over 50cms of snow feel above 3350m. The freezing levels went from below the hut to above the Red Band at times so there will probably be some verglas down low. Cornices, tedious climbing and nasty localized, wet windslabs up to 1m could be expected on the upper ridge.
We watched a big ugly, icefall triggered, wet slab come off Magog at 9am this morning. Assiniboine will be a slush and rockfall disaster during the next couple of warm sunny days. Maybe it will dry off enough to be in shape for the next forecasted bad weather on monday! Bummer!
Gmoser's Highway is dry.
