The snow and visibility conditions on Green were as expected. Snow was heavy but skied fine, visibility was terrible. We skied the backside glades. Had a lot of big settlements in most open areas around treeline while climbing. The scariest thing was the falling trees. There are plenty across the access road, most had a workaround, but they are coming down continuously. A few new ones had fallen while we were up top. It definitely adds some risk to traveling in the forest right now and is making a bit of a mess on the up track and some ski zones.
