[MCR] Lake Louise area, Mt Temple and Valley of the 10 Peaks

Images from this morning in the Larch Valley by Moraine Lake. Temple had quite a bit of snow on the upper mountain, Mt Fay was plastered on the north side, and multiple loose avalanches up to size 2 were rolling off the sun-warmed eastern aspects on the 10 Peaks side. Lots of rockfall was seen and heard from Pinnacle Mtn as the fresh snow, and newly formed ice, melted on southern aspects.
 
It looks like more snow is in the forecast for Sunday and Monday...more wintery conditions to follow!
