Sangre de Cristo

Clear sky, cold temps in the teens, no to calm winds

Below treeline the new snow fell mostly on the ground. Near treeline had more variety, wind and sun protected areas had the new snow siting on mostly facets to the ground (20 - 60cm thick). Wind affected areas had a firm slab between the new snow and near ground facets measuring depths of up to 170cm. Some solar aspects seemed to have a small sun/temperature crust but they were rare, hard to find, and unsupportable. Above treeline the snow looked more wind effected than the other areas with snow mostly being below ridgelines and in cross loaded terrain.
