Timberline to Blossom (via Power Line) to 7500’ (via Glade/Storm’n Norman UHA and ski area boundary line)
Quick report
Cloudiness/Whiteout bw 5-5.5K’ to at least as high as 7500’ during whole tour (1045-1645) (ended at Govy Summit Ski Area). Slow, cautious travel above Treeline was essential to stay on route and not fall forward over wind drift lips. Light precip early on (snow at Timberline, rain at Blossom) became much lighter later on to non-existent for most of final descent (may have been more fogginess than precip later on). Seemed fairly calm during BTL portions of tour, mild-moderate SW winds N/ATL. No concerning indicators, albeit lack of visibility and proximity to well-used, low angle runs for most of tour make it tough to say. Did notice a medium hickness crust that was mostly supportable to my uphill track in the untracked/ungroomed areas above top Storm’n Norman lift to 6500’-7500’. Mix of on/off piste skiing was quality when selective.
