Weather

Scattered clouds, light-mod SW winds in the a.m., barely freezing in the morning.

Snowpack

Surprisingly good refreeze overnight---5cm frozen hard, supportable crust, with mank/wet rounds underneath. Perfect corn on E/SE aspects at 10:00. By 10:15 south aspects had lost their crust entirely at 12,900ft, east aspects were good still corn. West aspects firm at 10:30 at 13,100 (Cupid summit) then mank/wet/punchy by valley bottom.

Avalanche

No recent activity observed.
