Comments
Skied Ramp Peak today. Cold, -15 parking lot and -25 up the valley. Sunny and light-no wind all day. Snow was minimally wind affected and offered deep powder with some sharks to watch for. A couple settlements were noted in low angle alpine terrain. Slab character was variable, with soft storm slab and hard wind slab near the top where things were wind swept.
