As expected, not a lot of snow to be found out there. Bushes still sticking out in lower elevations. Current snowpack made for some difficult skiing (think dust on crust on facets). Trees, stumps and rocks still lurking just below the surface in places. If you're looking for a walk in the woods, things are beautiful. If you're looking for good skiing, Boundary Lake may night be the best choice right now...
