Most places had two to three feet of snow, but this handpit at 8300 feet on a northeast slope in Mill Hollow showed 65 inches of total snow, with seven inches of loose facets on top with a nine inch slab sitting on older NSF, moderately well adhered but failing on this facet layer.

Josh Archibald enjoys very light winds and sunshine on the ridge top above Cache Valley today.

Southwest aspect skied surprisingly well this afternoon, although could feel an underlying crust. Mine and Al Dymerski's tracks on Dymerski's Folly.

Crust beneath several inches of soft fresh on southwest aspects, rime crust from last Tuesday still evident in west Mill Hollow.
