Skiing

About 6-8 inches of fairly dense new snow with light to no wind. Overcast and humid today with light snow falling.

On southerly aspects, we noted the snow had gotten her wet and slushy during the recent warm spell. The new snow seemed well bonded when we did some hand shear tests, but the base on these aspects was still very wet and unsupportable at lower elevations. It has not had a chance to refreeze yet.

Up higher and on north aspects, the base was less slushy and skied much better.
