Comments
I got up high today to find a trace to 1 inch of new snow. The wind was moderate from the north and blowing what little new snow we got into small drifts on the south side of the compass. The little bit of snow and wind is filling in old tracks, but they are all still very visible as seen below. I am surprised every day I get out to find we still have plenty of snow to recreate on. Although our snowpack is still very solid and covering quite of bit of the rocks out there, up high, it is very thin for this time of year.
