We skied up the highway side of Cirque Peak today, April 20th. A number of
snow squalls kept the solar radiation at bay, and resulted in about 10cm of
fresh snow that skied very well, all the way down to the highway.
We didn't observe any avalanche activity while we skied, but on the drive south
down highway 93N in the early afternoon the sun was out and solar releases were
starting to happen.
