Overcast and mild with steady light snowfall.

Snowpack

The snowpack along the corridor remains thin, but is slowly building. Strong over weak layering exists in virtually all of the paths. The main missing ingredient is volume, which we are forecast to get this weekend. Dust observed at the bottom of the most recent storm snow (roughly 5 inches down). Not problematic nor causing obvious faceting now, though may hasten snow melt in the spring.
