- <p>just waiting for a load at this elevation</p>
widespread weak 1/2" crust, suncrust on east through south, but seemed to be everywhere, could be from riming event, but this location was a little below in elevation, most likely temp related. Less than 2' of snow at this elevation, weak and will not support your weight on foot, I was not on skis today, was up checking out a snowmobile and just getting a look around. Snowpack about the same depth at 9500' as on the Skyline, but did not get out off packed trails because I would sink in hip deep and too lazy to wallow out to a useful area to dig snowpit. In my travels today I was on the East side of the higher terrain and wind damage apparent but did not get a good look at N through W terrain, did not see any recent activity.
would rate the upper elevation at moderate today, but lower elevation was low as you would expect
