Weather

Cloud deck hung in at 13,000 ft till noon hour before breaking up. Cold NW wind made for some chilly wind chill numbers

Snowpack

Snowline (deeper than the veneer of recent storm snow) is at a lower elevation than normal, but it is making some gains as the storm cycle continues. Just enough wind to drift newer snow into small Wind Slab just below ridge crest on east aspects. Cornices getting rather large
