Comments
Road ride into Bullmoose to assess snowpack to date. Low height of snow at 4200ft of elevation. Approximately 60cms of snow. Upper snowpack consists of fresh storm snow that varies from Powder to wind slab depending on aspects. The bottom 30cms of the snowpack is a Facet and depth hoar mixture. Keep an eye on the big winds coming into the area thisbwednesday which should continue to scour and lee load on certain aspects.
