Quite a warm day in the Uintahs. I heard it rained at over 8500 ft on Wolf Creek Pass around 3:00. I was lucky to be skiing at between 10000 and 10600 when the cell moved through. There was some settling while I skinned a long the ridgeline but other than that no activity seen anywhere. The snow is failing just below the melt-freeze layer about 20cm down ECTN 12 BRK and CTN 11 RP on top a 10 cm layer of fist hard facets.
