Snowpack Summary
This last storm has left us with 10-25cm of snow, more towards the East of the Park. The alpine has variable distribution of snow from 60-150cm of depth due to several wind events over the last couple of weeks. The alpine has a lot of good skiing in sheltered areas. Some alpine areas have extensive wind slabs (producing easy to moderate sheers) with the reverse loading from the recent easterly storm. This recent storm snow sits on previous hard wind slabs that are "drum" like sounding. The snow coverage below tree line is still slim, thus making travel challenging.
Problems
Wind Slabs
The alpine has has a mixed bag of powder snow and wind slabs. Be alert on changing conditions under your skis.
