Well it’s still winter in the alpine in this zone, but todays warm temps were quickly warming up the surface snows/crust by mid day. There was pockets of dry snow, 5-15cm, at the 500m mark before noon. Last nights refreeze left a crust, that was 3cm thick at lower elevations, to a very thin skin in upper valley on the S-E facing slopes we dug on. Our test produced no significant results, with no new Avalanche activity observed. Travel was excellent on snowmobile, Think settled good coverage go anywhere, more than the deep powder usually associated with this zone.
