Not much to report in the way of weather this morning. Under mostly clear skies winds are light and southwesterly, and 10,000' temps are in the mid-teens. Today will be a beautiful day in the mountains with sunny skies, continued light southwesterly winds, and high temps approaching freezing. Saturday looks to be more of the same. A weak system will move through the area on Sunday favoring points north, and there isn't much else on the horizon.
Snow depths range from 30" at Camp Jackson and Buckboard Flat (9000') to more than 4' of snow at North creek Pass (10,500'). Some sun and wind-exposed slopes have considerably less and there is still some grass poking out, but all said we're off to a good start down here.
