Weather

Broken clouds all day, some snowfall (S-1) for a brief period around 1100. When the sun was out it warmed quickly. Spring is coming!

Snowpack

Encountered a breakable 3cm suncrust on South and South East aspects primarily, or where the sun peeked through the trees on more protected areas. HS on the leeward side of the ridge averaged 150cm. Buried surface hoar up 111cm was stubborn in tests, but the interface has consistently failed in my tests over the past two weeks.
