Quick report

Traveled up skyline, over to Tye Peak and back. Snow line was at ~4,500. ~2 inches of snow at the top of Tye by 1pm, no wind. Noted a number of glide cracks and old wet activity. Fair amount of roller ball activity, which seemed to increase as the day went on. Skiing below 40 degrees did not produce any loose slides. Travel was easy on somewhat supportable wet upper snowpack. Skiing was better than expected.
