More chowder than powder, but still fun.
Snow report said 4" but the amount of new varied a lot depending where you were.
The top layer was saturated but not ridiculous, maybe had wicked water out of the wetter base beneath. The underlayer was also fortunately not frozen. You could ski it much like powder, the drag in the snow enabled aggressive lines.
Toward 2ish though was starting to refreeze, and with all the tracks in it could make the next few days less fun unless gets covered again.
Very uncrowded, no lines backside ever.
Stevens did not get the bonus sun today (some fog, some light snow, some short sunbreaks between clouds) but could see that just east it was clear sky.
Took one run down Highline, it was not as good as last weekend. Serious clinkers in lower trees where rain had shed snow on branches then froze, but also some unexpected powder in gladed sections. Still issues with getting over some stream gullies coming back.
