Just another trip to the clinic, but I felt stronger than last week. There was just enough snow to start skinning from the parking lot, 2360', but the road below 2800' had really melted out by the time I skied out yesterday. Eight inches new since last week at 3800 feet, which is about what the snowpack model suggested after allowing for some settling. A rather unpleasant crust skiing in.
Hoping that there would be a sufficient freeze at night, I was out of the tent and skiing up the hill by 6:15 am. The crust was just strong enough to support my weight. By ~5800' the crust had mostly disappeared. Skiing up was relatively easy, but going down as it warmed up with the temperature inversion was - - well, you can guess. I did find a few little spots to do some turns however.
Going out took the skis off at 2750' and walked the road.
