Observations

We rode south and east aspects on mid-30 degree slopes between 4500 and 6100 feet, between 10am and 3pm. Unusual for the area, only very slight signs of wind transport/cornices. Very spring-like skiing conditions, some thin suncrusts on upper slopes, damp but enjoyable buttery snow mid-slope, and mashed potatoes on the lower third of the slopes we skied (bring wax). Coverage is lower than last week, watch for occasional rocks mid-slope.
