Snow Characteristics Comments
Snow surface starting to exhibit effects of cold, clear nights. Found small surface hoar on all aspects as well as NSF on more N facing terrain. New snow from last storm is starting to settle down and feel firmer underfoot. Still riding well in northerly terrain and shaded slopes.

Red Flags Comments
There are facets at the ground but they are moist and non-reactive. The worrisome snow will be what's at the surface now and beginning to facet.

Overall a nice early season day with mostly supportable skiing above about 8000'. Below that the snow is droppy and very shallow. Lots of bushes poking through and barely covered rocks, etc.
