Campbell Icefields

We arrived at at Campbell Icefields on a cold, cold morning in early March.



Overnight a big wind storm had sculpted the fine power snow into hard packed crust as far as the eye could see.



Thankfully it started snowing that night and didn't let up for days. Over the week we got something 1.5 metres of snow. Temperatures hovering around -20 made for some incredible powder skiing below tree line. Amazing stuff.







We said goodbye to the bottomless powder as temperatures warmed up later in the week.



Good food.



Good music.



And good times until far too soon it was time to pack up and head for home.



It took two attempts but finally on the second day of trying we bid adieu to Campbell Icefields for another few years at least.
