Weather

Dark grey skies and humid-feeling with warm air temp.

Snowpack

HS 6 inches at lower stake. Stake A 12 inches and Stake C 0 inches. Snow at lower stake patchy with large dirt areas. All south facing slopes bare of snow. Lower tracks of all chutes also bare. Small wet loose sluffs from steep banks noted. One D1 from Switchback 3. Did not make roadway. A deeper shady spot next to lower stake held 16 inches of snow that was moist throughout. I would expect activity from NW slopes/chutes if we see another 24 hrs above freezing temps.
