Weather

Mix of sun and snow, moderate to strong winds.

Snowpack

Recent storm snow depths varied widely due to wind re-distribution, from 0" to over 40" deep. Localized areas of newly formed windslabs, 6-12" deep. No clean shear planes observed within the new snow. Northerly aspects remain dry, thin melt-freeze crusts on east and south at higher elevations.
