Was questioning putting on snowshoes when we parked at Area Road, as it didn't seem like there was much snow there. The minute we stepped off the plowed road, we instantly hit 8 to 14 inches of powder.
Nice snowshoe and ski tracks throughout, including some folks enjoying the vast ski glades in the abandoned Alpine Ridge ski area. It would be a shame if anyone bareboots in here.
Fairly steady snow this morning, accumulating to 1-2 inches, with temperatures in the 20s. |
