Avalanche Conditions Video Report - not so lovey-dovey

Ministry of Transportation's Senior Avalanche Officer John Buffery joins Whitewater Ski Resort's Avalanche Forecaster Wren McElroy to discuss the current avalanche conditions. Join them as they talk about how the recent historical avalanches are running and important information on terrain choices. With more than 150cms of new snow falling in the last week and half there is an incredible amount of load on the persistent weak layers, how these layers are reacting is sporadic, with some releasing to ground with 2 meter crowns and some areas lying dormant. Watch the #sleepinggiant as it is unpredictable when it wake up.
