NW Aspect 12,300 (ATL). Clouds broken becoming overcast quickly after 2pm, winds W 10-15mph, no blowing snow. Air temp -5 C

Snowpack

Ridge top boot pen 5-10 cm. Boot pen in the north facing gullies was approx 50 cm or to the ground (depending on snow depth) through a sometimes supportable crust; on skis the snow was hard and supportive (ski pen 0 cm), but still plenty edgeable and fun to ski.
