Kernpunkte

Rain has ravaged the snowpack, especially on the east side of the park. Snow is completely melted in many areas. Hiking boots might be the best mode of travel while the snowpack rebuilds. Snow is forecast for tomorrow however this will only hide early-season hazards such as stumps and rocks. If you try and ski use caution.
