Storm totals have settled to 45 cm (17") with total of 85 cm (34") at Miller Flat snowstake.. Snotel had reported 3"-4" of water settlement cones around trees and bushes were only a few inches tall, bridge over facets is strong and continues to strengthen, very happy with changes to pack, we are headed in the right direction and if next storm materializes, depth will decrease change of gradients setting up, hopefully deep slab instability will start to fade. Certainly has started winter on the Wasatch Plateau, supportable pack allows travel just about everywhere, lots of snowmobile slope testing evident with no new activity, still leery of extreme terrain, especially shallow rocky areas, some stripped by the wind.

We did not have any collaspes, cracking, etc, today, and all the activity we saw was likely during the storm. Seems Fairview Canyon and points north got the brunt of the storm, with lessening amounts the further south you go, ie Ephraim Canyon did not seem to have as much new snow and water, so southern reaches could still be in persistent slab cycle
