Lodgepole Lake

= Strong SW wind, significant snow transport, windslabs, stiff surface in exposed areas at all the elevations we were at today (1650 to 2000m) = Graupel getting blown around and into hollows / features (next spatially-variable layer?) (photo) = Warm! 0 deg at 1650m at noon under cloudy sky. -2 at 1930m = quick dig at 1930m (photo). Dry snow throughout. HS 110 = no Na observed (but poor vis mind you), no results skiing <30deg slopes = small red-coated fella skipping through forest .... huh ?!
