Blue-bird day with warm temperatures and light winds.

Snowpack

Snow depth ranged from bare ground to 18 inches. Snow depth was deepest on shady, north facing slopes. The snowpack supported the weight of a skier/ rider. We observed two different crust in the snowpack with light snow on the surface. Observed isolated surface cracking with no audible collapses.
