Wind hammered solid cardboard most places with some rotten snow in the protected areas and bare ground where the sun shines against the south facing slopes.  A couple of good storms would be really nice here in the Wenatchee area.  Today I went 2200' uphill and I found about 150' of nice skiing turns.   Pockets of goodness are out there, but you have to look pretty hard to find them.

You should go right to Paradise tomorrow. You'd love it!

Saw a weather report that said winds had been clocked at 99 MPH on Mission Peak the day you were looking for turns!

^^^that's normal for here, we only worry if it gets close to 140-150 mph.
