Comments

Good snow coverage at Brew. We probed 80 cm depth at Brew Lake and a maximum of 160 cm in wind-loaded areas at the col just south of Mt. Brew. It was plentiful for skiing the mellow slopes above Brew Lk.

We stuck to mellow slopes and did not see any signs of instability, which would have been surprising on the aspects we skiied anyways.

Substantial snow accumulation (15 to 30 cm) on Branch 200 FSR, which dwindles to < 5 cm near the Roe Creek main / Branch 200 junction.
