Weather
Day started with mostly cloudy skies and light (S-1) snowfall. Skies cleared by mid-morning yielding to mostly sunny skies. Temperatures were cool, but calm conditions and ample sunshine made it feel warm.
Snowpack
12 to 14 inches of low density storm snow. No signs of any wind affect, even in this commonly windy area. No signs of snow transport even along the Continental Divide. There is plenty of snow available for transport when the winds inevitably return. It won't take much wind to drift this snow into slabs ~2 feet thick.
