Observations

Accumulation is presently boot-deep at Central, mid-calf at West, with a soft warming crust atop fist/4F snow. A number of people were out today (11/20) making gentle turns at West. Be mindful of pipes/culverts/ditches/sharks.

There's more than enough snow to start burying beacons. The pass is beautiful with the new snow.
