Red Lake Peak

Although today was breezy, most recent snow that would have been available for transport had either already been blown around, or it had become moist in the warm temperatures and resistant to winds. There were still a few very localized puffs of blowing snow observed. Wind loaded test slopes did not produce cracking, but they were noticeably denser than recent snow on wind sheltered slopes. Warm slopes were moist on the surface, but not overly so due to cooling from the NW wind. Clouds were dark over Ebbetts Pass and west of Kirkwood, and looked to be forming some light precip.
