Snowpack
HST 20-35cm. Dense storm snow covered old snow surfaces and riding conditions were surfy. Beginning just before 1200, intermittent green housing combined with decreasing cloud cover saturated snow surfaces on solars by 1230. Mid/upper elevation polars held cold snow until the end of the day.
