Quick report
- Red Flags
- Wind Loading
We were not having any cracking or collapsing on the skin up and with a few quick pits the new snow seemed to be bonded well with the melt freeze crust. We skied steep N and E facing slopes with no signs of instability. I'm sure there are some wind loaded slopes in exposed areas from the NW wind though
Snowpack
About 10-12" of new snow above 10000'. 4-6" at the trailhead. Fun skiing but you could feel the bottom unless the angle of the slope was low enough, even N facing at 11000' had a melt freeze crust underneath. Exposed slopes were affected by the strong winds
