Comments
The storm the island needed! ~10cm fell overnight with an addition ~10cm during the day in addition to the big dump earlier this week. Light winds, although we stayed in the trees. Temps remained below 0. Face shots were plentiful.
No signs of instability aside from predictable small sluffs on steep slopes in trees.
1.1m in dense trees at 1200m
1.8m at 1350m
Storm broke up in the afternoon with the sun making an appearance around 3pm.
