Trace amount of snow at the parking lot to start the day, but increasing amounts with higher elevation. Easily 10cm around Taylor Lake and 20cm+ up towards panorama ridge. Gusty winds were moving even more snow around in areas. New snow was supportive, but sitting atop sugary facets. Flurries throughout the day and cooler temps up high, but the lower few kms of trail were quite wet and heavy/icy with temps of +5c at the parking lot again mid afternoon.
