Weather

Light W'rly winds locally, occasionally gusting stronger. Temps hovering just around/above freezing.

Snowpack

Generally weak. Storm snow from the Christmas storm sits on top of weak, faceted snow. See snow pit profile for more information. Lots of localized collapsing while travelling through the trees to the upper start zone. Warming from the sun caused roller balls off of the cliffs above the highway.
