Weather

Snowing hard, S5 for most of the day. No visibility. Light to moderate southwest wind.

Snowpack

Deep snow surface conditions. Around 7 feet of snow on the ground, resting on a 1 to 2 foot thick, still 4-finger hard, layer of early season depth hoar. The holiday stab is strong and mostly continuous, except near windswept ridgelines.
