Weather

Snowing S1-2 for most of the afternoon with periods of intense winds and whiteout conditions. Winds were generally moderate from the North.

Snowpack

Northerly winds were creating soft wind slabs on S-SW-W facing slopes below treeline. The new slabs were anywhere from 10-30cm and were cracking on the old faceted snow surface. There was about 5-10cm of new snow on the road.
