Snowpack Summary

Between 10 and 20 cm of light snow rests on a generalized crust that supports the weight of a skier. Slopes exposed to northwest winds are eroded to the crust. Very firm wind hardened snow is found on the upper leeward slopes at the tree line.

The height of the snowpack is 100 to 170 cm.
