LIABILITY WAIVER This mountain conditions advisory is provided as a public service by Aspiring Guides Ltd. It is intended as an advisory only. Those endeavouring to travel into any of the areas mentioned do so at their own risk. Backcountry travellers should be well informed about current weather, snowpack and avalanche hazards and should not travel alone. All members of your party should wear a transceiver (457khz) and know how to use it. In addition everyone should carry a shovel, and a probe. Travellers should advise someone where they are travelling, and when they will next make contact.

Topic: Black Peak 1/10/09

Comment: Good corn snow on Black Peak. Nice melt freeze cycle and smooth surface throughout. Still skiing to valley floor.

Loose snow avalances (size 1) only in very steep terrain.

Giant (wet) slab visible on Fog Peak.
