Comments
Yesterday's cold front brought some clouds, but no new snow for the Bear River Range. There is some snow in upper elevation north facing and shady terrain, but after a remarkably dry first half of November it's pretty shallow and rocky in most areas.
Where there is still October snow, it's either crusty or rotten, very loose and sugary (faceted snow).
