Weather

Warm and sunny with some high cirrus. Wind was calm.

Snowpack

The snow depth was shallow and only about 50cms on the north-facing slopes above SH65. Ski penetration increased 5cms since my last visit at 35cms while boot penetration was to the ground. The overall snow depth decreased 5cms from my last visit here as well. Extended column tests showed no potential for propagation (ECTN11 and ECTN14 down 25 cms on FC size 2-4mm).
