Comments
Comments: Very little snow cover down low from trailhead to left turn away from Skookumchuck Brook.
3 - 6 inches of powder beyond that point woth drifting as you get closer to ridge. Very windy on ridge so abandoned going to Lafayette. Saw no one on the way up, first person onntrail for the day, 5 people as I was coming back down.
