Snow Conditions

crusty, hard, powder

Day was mainly sunny with some low clouds in the valley in the AM. There was still some decent powder in areas which had not yet been skied. Skied out areas were hard/crusty. Snow coverage was just enough to avoid rocks if you picked your line carefully. While there were no signs of present instability, significant surface hoar has developed and could lead to a weak layer at next snowfall. Overall solid day of skiing all things considered.
