Nowcast- High pressure homesteading over the region delivers clear skies and steamy morning temperatures hovering right around freezing. Winds tempered somewhat overnight and currently blow in the 20's from the west. The snow surface has taken a hard hit this week and is hit or miss. But if you're looking for windboard, zipper crust, or afternoon mank... there's no shortage of keep ya honest snow textures for the taking.

Forecast- Look for mostly sunny skies with high temperatures bumping into the low 40's. Overnight lows dip into the low 30's. Winds blow in the teens and low 20's from the west.

Futurecast - High, dry, and warm to round out the weekend and kick off the workweek. There's some uncertainty with the strength of a midweek storm, but it does look like a moist, mild system slides through the region sometime Wednesday. We'll keep ya posted as details become more clear.

Travel Conditions -

Inspired Summit Adventures founder, guide, and mom extraordinaire, Shaun Raskin, captured this image of an upper elevation slope in the wind zone... looking rather glazed and confused :)

Ted visited the Boundary Creek zone on east side of range and reports coverage resembling early November... yikes!

Local snowpro Trevor Katz sums it up eloquently with his midweek observation from the Mill Hollow zone.
