Today Morfee delivered great views and hard, wind pressed snow along the ridges we explored. Lower down, we were able to find a bit of soft stuff in the trees. With winds forecasted to increase this weekend, we paid extra attention to the amount of soft snow that hadn't blown away yet. While it doesn't look like much, we think that it's still enough snow to build windslabs that we'll be mindful of.
