Access to the canyon has only opened up this week. With poor visibility today and no reports, in the area, since an early December mountain bike trip. It's hard to know what's going on further up, but. There is the weak, wet, facet base layer, capped with 1" of ice. On top of that sits 16" of 4F. Everything else is Light density fluff.

Instability Comment
<p>wind transport doesn't require much wind with this new snow. As snow totals increase this can become a bigger problem. Access to upper areas is difficult right now.</p>

very light, on top of yesterday's light 10".
