Snowpack Summary

The North Shore mountains received 5-15 cm of snow on Sunday, which is the first snow to stick on the ground. You may find some patches of slightly deeper snow on north-facing terrain at higher elevations. These pockets of snow primarily consist of wet snow and crusts, and are probably not deep enough to produce avalanches.
