Weather Comments
I thougt there might be new snow up higher...I probably should have waited. I'm going to use the excuse that I haven't been in Big Cottonwood for a while. The snow was rain saturated pretty much all the way to the ridge-line, I was thinking about dropping in to Mineral Fork then decided against it. Temps dropped and snow started to fall as I was heading down.
