Went out to give it a shot one more day before the clouds roll in for the weekend. Travel was from USA Bowl, Scotts, No Name, South and West Monitor and out Willow Heights. Went on quite a search for some recrystallized soft snow or some pseudo corn, not much luck at finding any consistent good skiing. Is recrustillization a word?? The faceting of the surface snow in the terrain covered has been hindered by the rime event on Monday and the unusually high temperatures that have been in place for the last 4 days. Crust was the theme of the day on all aspects, wind crust on the exposed N and NE terrain in the Monitors and Scotts, Rime crust and sun crust in No Name not to mention a thousand old frozen tracks, Bailed at 2:00pm, S, SW, SE and W never soften much up high, a little softening below 8900ft on our exit. Usually I can find at least one moderately good run, did not find one today, but at least it got me out of the bad air. Would expect a frozen waste land tomorrow, old tracks are especially hard right now, and some flat light won't help much either. Photos wet activity in West Monitor and No Name from the last couple days, frozen klinkers today, surface hoar only found in the drainage bottoms, our hammered snow pack.
Going with low except for slide for life potential.
