Weather and Snow

Much different day yesterday in Ephraim Canyon compared to Fairview Canyon on Christmas. Every meadow we touched was collapsing and cracking in Fairview Canyon. Yesterday in Ephraim Canyon, nothing. Granted the snowpack is a bit different between the two places, things are settling down.
