Weather

Clear skies, light winds, and warm temps. Cloud cover increased throughout the day.

Snowpack

New snow continues to settle on most slopes. Snow is deepest on N aspects. Only on very steep slopes did the new snow sluff. A melt-freeze crust is observed buried within the snowpack that developed between last weeks two storms. This layer is most notable on East and South aspects but also exist on West aspects. Snow falling of rocks created a few small Loose-Wet point release.
