Quick report

Walked in San Joaquin ridge from main lodge very good snow coverage the whole way half the road is plowed so might be tight for a sled. There was a thin sun crust on all southern aspects about an inch thick. Snow on the ride was wind effected and firm. Snow depth at the wilderness boundary was 75. Dropped of the ride towards dead man creek road first 100ft or so was very firm but after that the snow was fantastic light and powdery. Riding back the ride the snow had a thin crust but was easy to break and very fun low angle riding
