The Marble Mountain Snowpark has added a new lot for vehicles without trailers. It was nice not parking next to the snowmobilers. We had light rain at the trailhead which turned into scattered snow showers. We skinned up to 7,000' and were in a white out most of the time. Two in our group abandoned skis and went to tag the crator rim and the rest of us made some turns on some nice corn which existed between 5,500 to 7,000'. Below that the snow was unconsolidated, heavy and wet. No sign of recent avalanche activity.
