Snow Characteristics Comments
So sad to see the great pow of Friday go south! The high moisture, ambient air led to a nasty rime crust that was pervasive on all aspects. Rime started about 7,100 feet and went as high as as the White Pine Knob, Cornice Ridge etc. I hope the warm weather melts the rime, then new snow later this week gets us back on track.
