Quick report
Headed into Cardiff via Alta, zero visibility, and moderate snowfall until 2pm, more showery after that. Skied into the Keyhole which is full of frozen clinkers, bad call on my part. Then headed to Hansen's on Cardiac Ridge, mainly because it has a few trees and helped with the nauseating vertigo in the dense fog. The new snow skied well on smooth lower angle slopes, not so well on the steeps or slopes with old tracks or debris. The wind was nuking on the ridge line but it wasn't slabbing up the new snow in the terrain covered, there's also not much new snow for transport. If we don't receive much more new snow I would expect the hazard to remain low except for shallow wind slabs in select locations.

Snowpack
2 to 3 inches of new snow by 4pm, mostly graupel with a carvable frozen base underneath. Snow rain line was basically at Alta's base in the AM.
