What a nice looking early start to the season with generally 12-15" of cold snow that mainly fell on bare ground. A few isolated high elevation north facing slopes had some late October snow that hung around, but this recent snow is nice and uniform with damp snow near the ground. Hopeful the storms and snow continue to build a good deep snow pack going forward.

Still quite limited where you can move around safely, but find a nice grassy meadow or a forest road and conditions are legit for early November.

Snow and wind have started to fill in some areas along the ridge lines creating some wind drifts and these places will be where unstable snow will develop as more snow is on the way.
