Observations
Overcast and lightly snowing in the morning. By 11am it became partly sunny. Solar aspects had trees shedding snow, some small roller balls and loose wet releases. Snow from the storms during the past week had consolidated and was about 50cm deep in most areas where we traveled. We saw evidence of old storm and wind slab avalanches, most were already filled in again from snow and wind loading.
Great riding conditions and lovely to see the sun!
