Snowpit Observations
More detailed information about the snowpack: 

 Skied at the East aspect of Todd Ridge yesterday. There 10-20 cm's of low density powder over a firm crust in some places. The main hazard was coverage, as there are still many downed logs and sticks that are still sticking up. We did observe some sluffing in steeper areas, but nothing that required management. Things should be improving today for coverage.
