Weather

North flow did an impressive job of squeezing of last remaining moisture out of the storm. Skies went from broken to Obscured in the PM. Light N winds w/ moderate gusts at Hwy elevation. Consistent snow all afternoon w/ numerous bursts of S2 snowfall. Possibly the coldest day this winter.

Snowpack

Snowfall keeps adding up... Surface snow was lightly stiffened into a soft slab by wind effect in open areas below treeline.
