Snowpack

Most south facing banks bare of snow. Switchback 1 and 2 have lost 12-18 inches of base since the beginning of February. "B" master stake reads 12", however a few feet either side of the stake is bare ground. Still visible are several small Wet Loose point releases, from mid February. One arrested at the rockfall netting (would not have made the roadway). North chutes 4 through 8 still appear well covered with no signs of Wet Loose Avalanche activity.
