Comments
Dawn patrol up Snake Creek on snowmobiles. Clouds lifted and it appeared that many slopes above 38 degrees around Ant Knolls and Ant Eater had slide last night. We kept our distance playing in the flat meadows below. Crown lines didn't look super deep, estimating 12-24". Probably broke in the new storm layer. Portions of the trail coming up to Big Flat had released overnight.
New snow in flat meadows was 16-24" deep.
