Comments
About 20-30cm of new snow overnight. Lots of wind transport. Exposed windward slopes were crusted and icy. Lee slopes and sheltered areas had u real powder and good riding conditions. No signs if avalanches is the last few days. No shooting cracks or whomps. 155cm snowpack by the cabin on my steele- a few touch layers at 50cm and 80cm but settling pretty good.
