6" of new, low density snow, at 10:00 when I rolled in to the Guardsmans lot. PI ranged from S1-S2 this morning and there were a couple more inches on my car when I returned a few hours later. Above 9000' there was 10"-12" of new snow, with a light southwest wind. No wind loading observed in the areas I traveled.

Our early season snowpack is making travel challenging right now, as new snow is either falling on bare ground (rocks, bushes, stumps, etc) or weak snow. Good skiing can be found on northerlies, although these are the same aspects of concern as weak layers become overloaded by new snow. I was able to catch some great low angle pow turns above 9000' but coverage rapidly decreases at lower elevations.
