Pretty decent skiing and snow machining today considering the mild temps. The area we traveled went through a natural avalanche cycle on steep north through east facing slopes. These were in the newest storm snow. I was surprised to see how much snow we have gotten since last week since I haven't been out in a while. The Uintas are plastered with snow and the terrain is as filled in as I've ever seen it.

Mild temps made for damp snow at lower elevations. Snow was considerably lighter up high...until greenhousing changed that. More snow than I had anticipated, especially down low. Spongecake mashed potatoes.
