| Comments: |
Sunday's powder ranged from 0.5 to 1.5 feet deep, generally about 8-10 inches. I wore snowshoes roundtrip, as did all but one other individual, who decided to posthole and slip/slide. A few bony areas, but very much necessary in the drifted portions on the ridge. I was able to repair the damage for the most part, so hopefully tonight's forecast snow and tomorrow's forecast rain won't set up frozen postholes tomorrow night.
Cloudy afternoon with temperatures just below freezing and flurries arriving just before 5. |
