Yellowstone Ski Tours

Very hard/ thick rain crust in the mid and upper elevations. Likely on all aspects due to warm temps and rain that happened on Oct. 13th.

HS is more than 280cms. Skied a nearby NW aspect around 40 deg in steepness, and the skier triggered sluffs started initially slow, but eventually entrained a good bit of (new) snow, and became quite large, running full track.

25cms of settled new snow, as of noon today.

Was curious about the possibility of buried surface hoar, that was observed around Cooke City on March 17 to upper elevations, but did not find it in this location.

Lots of surface hoar observed on the surface, on all aspects to upper elevations.
