Observation: Snake Creek

Damp is an understatement with all aspects up to 10,300 having varying degrees of Wet-ness, even at 0930. Greenhousing and direct intermittent/periodic burst of solar made the East and Solars even more wet. Grabby/sticky conditions 9000' and below. Of Note: over 3 inches of water in the form of rain was observed at 8000'. Brighton reported 2.41" of SWE. Riding was surfy on supportable wet surface snow and trail breaking was very supportable. Hard to find any dry/cold surface snow in areas traveled up to 10,500', but once you dug down 3 to 4 inches the first part of the storm above 10,000' was still dry. Exit was done at 1300, so it's hard to say if even those layers remained dry. All aspects and elevations will have variable forms of crusts tomorrow.
