Light snow early gave way to partly cloudy skies by afternoon. Plenty of wind transport at Pass level, but no banners observed in the alpine. HS; Slumgullion Snotel 38", new Highway Stake 48".

Snowpack

No signs of instability- cracking or collapsing. Snowpack is mostly supportable near treeline, but mostly bottomless below. Strong northerly winds at treeline.
