Weather

Strong, gusty winds at treeline. Swirling from S-W-N, drifting snow from all those directions. Open areas below treeline were affected by down canyon winds.

Snowpack

Surface highly wind effected. Even open areas below treeline had a windskin or thin slab. Windslabs thickening and stiffening through the day.

New slabs surprisingly un-reactive
