We headed out with a plan to get up into the alpine but quickly had to change plans. The cold temps and poor vis meant we spent the day sledding in the trees near the warming hut. There was enough soft snow to get it on edge in lee areas, so around 10-15 cm. The wind was moving snow at all elevations, with occasional drifts in the trees and scouring back to old tracks in open areas. Decent riding considering how little snow we've had
