Snowpack Description:
Started loose wet slides on Snodgrass at 12:05pm. About 2" crown on some 40 degree shots that ran until it hit the bench below. Also very pinwheely out there with some getting the size of beach balls. I wouldn't have wanted to be on BIG terrain with it like this, but where we were it was more interesting than dangerous. Still, 12:05pm when it hits 50+F is too late to be skiing.
