Nice fluffy snow! 4-12” depending on which way the wind blew. Most of the powder was up on WRT and on Avalon trail between AZ and WRT. Coming down in the evening, it looked like the lower part of Avalon thawed a bit, but it was nicely tracked with snowshoes so should be nice tomorrow. Up high, it did not get above freezing, so it will still be fluffy snow requiring snowshoes. It’s windy up there too, the my own tracks were filled in when I backtracked to Field after summiting Willey. |
