Comments
Baldy provides again. We ascended the SW aspect of the mtn and found fantastic pow. Ligh on top with a perfect gradient of density. The snow was supportive, slashable, and deep. Average depths were around 130 cms. Around noon we headed to the NE side and noticed an ice forming fog in the air, despite a consistent temp of -5. A very thin crust formed on the snow surface over the course of the afternoon. Snow quality remained high despite the change in weather.
