Weather

Clear, warm, and calm.

Snowpack

At 11,600 ft on a north-facing slope near treeline, the height of snow was 160 cm. The upper 40 cm consisted of dry, new snow from the 4/1 storm. Evidence of meltwater was observed 90 cm below the surface. The remainder of the snowpack was composed of moist facets measuring 2–3 mm. The new snow bonded well to the old snow, and an extended column test produced no results.
