Farm Cabin Weekend

<p>Weekend trip out to the Farm Cabin and slopes on either side of the meadow on Dec 7-9. Significant warming through the weekend from ~ -15 (Friday) to near 0 by Sunday. Upper 20 cm powdery facets with a consistent rain/ice crust down ~45 cm. Significant surface hoar (greater than 10 mm in areas) developed throughout the area, though gusty and warm conditions on Dec 9 may help to blast out the surface hoar. Excellent skiing on a fairly solid snowpack, but the surface hoar may become a problem layer in the near future. Notable snow transport with loading on NNE aspect slopes on Dec 9. </p>
