Observations

Found ~6-8" today above 7500' in Angel Basin that had accumulated in the last 24 hours. Temperatures cooled off significantly today and the snow was very low density, high quality ultra pow. No evidence of wind affected snow from yesterday or today up to ~8600'. Loose Dry would have been a possibility on very steep slopes but overall the new snow that we saw was not cohesive enough for slab formation.
