Weather

Moderate to strong northwest winds. Partly cloudy skies, with increasing cloud cover after 3pm.

Snowpack

Above treeline - fairly continuous snow cover on north to east to southeast aspects, with surface roughness covered only in drifted features. Patchy snow cover on sunny slopes, tapering to no snow cover as you get further from Paradise Divide. Near treeline - too little snow cover for avalanches, though weak layers are forming north to northeast to east aspect. Below treeline - very little to no snow.

Avalanche

None seen.
