Weather

Mostly sunny and seasonably warm in the early morning, but clouds were building quickly by 11 am.

Snowpack

Snow surface was still cold at 11 am. A 3-4 cm thick m/f crust formed last night. A few D1 wet loose slides ran late yesterday afternoon in above treeline W facing terrain, and a couple of rollerballs had come down on E facing slopes this morning. Otherwise, snow surface was stable at the time of this observation.
