Quick report

Started from Gold Creek SnoPark 10AM, en route to Kendall Lakes. Exposed gravel on the forest road until 3200', then snow depth steadily increased. Relatively easy traveling in the track above 3500'. Upper part of the snowpack was 6-8cm of wet snow, over ~1cm thick crust. Near-surface layer snow density decreased/dryness increased above 4000-4200'. Old rollerballs were present on NW aspects. The tide is still a little low in the trees, but a good walk nonetheless. Light mix precip at the start turned to light snow for an hour until 11AM then tapered off. Sunbreaks thereafter.
