Observer Comments
Weather
37 degrees at sea level. High 20's at 2500'. Calm winds and high clouds. Light was pretty flat most of the day. No precip.
Snow surface
4-6" wet snow on crust below 1500'. Snow dries out around 2,000' where we found 6-10" of soft snow on a supportable pencil hard slab.
Snowpack
Dug a quick pit at 2500' to look for MLK buried surface hoar in top meter. Wasn't confident I'd find it given the big precip numbers since 1/21. Bear Valley RWIS reporting over 10" of water since MLK Jr Day (1/21).
6-10" settled pow on a P - 1F slab. No obvious concerns in top meter of snowpack.
Looking south toward Carpathian across the Whittier Glacier.
Quick pit at ~2400' on Whittier Glacier moraine.
