Skies are mostly clear, west and southwest winds are blowing 15-25 mph along the high ridges, and temperatures are in the low 30's. A variety of snow surfaces await this morning. Breakable crust on the sunny slopes, wind board in the exposed terrain, and a weakening snowpack where depths remain shallow.. But wait... there's more! If you hunt around long enough you can still find patches of soft settled powder in mid elevation, wind sheltered terrain. It's definitely worth getting into the mountains where the sun is shining and the air is clear!
