Maquilla Gave Us A Thrill-a

<p>Temps hovered just below zero at treeline. Strong winds were present in the alpine and ridge tops. In the alpine we found little to no visibility due to cloud and blowing snow so we stayed in the trees. Snow stayed dry but often wind loaded above 1350m and isothermal in the top 25cm of the snowpack below. No natural or human triggered slides observed. </p>
