Skiing

Lots of snow transport at all elevations from valley floor to ridgeline. Strong S-SSW wind. Ridge lines were getting scoured to crust, leeward wind pillows forming. Pillows were gaining cohesion and broke ~5-10’ wide and up to 20-25cm deep on small test slopes.

Broken cloud cover, trace of new snow.
