When it snows, the snowpack increases rapidly. Between 30 and 40 cm of light, dry snow fell on hard ground above about 1300 m. At the same time, moderate to strong winds are blowing, carrying the snow and building drifts and drifts. The snowpack is markedly uneven. There is a lot of blowing snow, especially on the leeward slopes.
