Quick report

Old wet debris/corn at upper end of low elevations, decent corn at middle, and wet snow that requires a summer wax above 6/7000 ft. And to whom ever cleaned up the deadfall on that trail this spring is a genuine American hero. Anyways, doubt anyone will even read this but maybe there’s a few other people still skiin Loose wet slides were abundant. One came down next to me as I was getting close to the runnel it happened to be in. This was around 11 AM. Was a manageable D1 but a natural slide from recent snow nevertheless, so my head was on a swivel all day

Snowpack

New snow from late May is still weighing heavy on the older snow and has not drained out and will not be suncups for awhile. Considering what has happened in the past six months it’s remarkable that one can still ski 3000 vertical feet.
