Looks like we picked up about 2 to 3 inches of powder from today's snow. Snow is a bit more moist than last week's, so it may pack decently.
Old Mountain Erode has wall to wall ice bulges, as well as some that are still slushy. Snowshoes span both just fine, but Microspikes not so much. Bony in a few places, but no issues with snowshoes.
Crawford Ridgepole had blizzard-like conditions around sunset. My tracks were wiped out in places in a matter of minutes. Bony in the usual spot, but drifting elsewhere. Glad to have snowshoes.
Overall, snowpack is probably around 6" on Old Mountain Erode and trending closer to a foot on sections of Crawford Ridgepole. |
