Comments

The high elevation sun turned has formed a pretty solid crust. We were skiing SE facing slopes from 6400-7000 feet. In the most dense trees the skiing was good but any think open a crust had formed. Snow pinwheels had formed and rolled at 6800 feet on the slopes that were around 30 degrees
