Weather

Clear moving to obscured in afternoon. Calm winds. Comfortable temps. Very light snow all day.

Snowpack

Snow height ranged from 35cm at 8200' to 56cm at 9200' to 95cm at 10500'. 2-4cm new snow. Boot penetration 40cm on NW slope at 10500'. Could not find buried surface hoar but suspect it is still there due to minimal signs of recent wind - going back tomorrow to look closer. No cracking or collapsing.

Avalanche

None.
