Weather

Remarkably calm for Berthoud. Whatever light winds were from the east...light enough not to transport snow. Increasing precip rates throughout day. Mostly S-1, but moving towards S1/S2 by 3 p.m.

Snowpack

Much settlement in one week. No cracking, and very minor whumpfs during day, mostly at treeline. Stability much improved over the course of week. Wind-slab forming off east side of Hidden Knoll; grabby snow and riding conditions along wind-affected features.
