| Comments: |
Great day weather wise. Little sun, cool temps, and little wind. Lots of monorail. Mostly firm snow due to recent chilly temps. Will change after rain and warming temps. Still a lot of snow above 3000 feet. Some bare spots on ledges and south facing slopes.
Lower elevations are spring like. Good day out with Gary T. |
