The north and northwest aspects of Arrowhead skied well today. Above 5200' was blower on top of a supportive crust, presumably the 2/28 crust. Below this elevation the upper layer was gradually heavier. Exposed areas were developing a crust on top with no slabbing. The low open slope at 3400' was breakable crust on mashed potato.

Blue skies transitioned to heavy wind and flurries around 4pm.

A terrific day out. Thank you to the folks that set the skin track!
