Submitting a report b/c no one has submitted anything since the last big storm. Trails are traveled and mostly packed down. They still remain a bit soft and snow shoes give the best traction. Snow cover is quite high; like bushwhacking on the ridge. May be some drifting after the winds picked up north of the south peak but it is minor. Only 2 groups of 2 on the mountains today. |
