Comments
Good riding on leeward side 75cm depth. 25cm recent snow on top of Nov 12 layer. West aspect at 2400m was very hard and difficult to skin up. Watch this layer as snow depth increases. Nov 12 layer less prevelant on leeward side, good riding did some enjoyable yoyo laps. Ride back to hwy 93 was good, but rapidly decreasing coverage below 2300.
