Weather Comments
It was raining all the way from Alta 8600ft up to Alfs 9200 ft . At which point it stopped precipitating. But it looked like signs of rain as high as 9700ft in Albion. The snow was greenhouse’d until 10,300ft. And only right near the ridge with wind blowing steady at 10,400ft was there about a half inch of dry snow. It seemed like the temperature dropped while I was out. On the way down it snowed then ice pellets until 9,200ft then it was all rain again. It was really wet so I didn’t dig around or take any pics/video.
