hmmmm, no posting available for March 2018, so I'll just put it here

Beautiful day roaming the snoqualmie hinterlands today. Bonafide face shots were had... where snow was sheltered. Poked up around above treeline a bit but no bueno... wind hammered with lurking slab potential. Not worth it either way, for  safety or enjoyment. Much better snow was to be had in trees and glades... where sheltered as mentioned.

Intermittent snow and sun throughout the day, and some definite warming as the day progressed. The pristine winter wonderland that we entered in the morning was a bombed out (trees!) landscape when we left. May add a bit of chunkiness to the mix in the coming days... 
On the plus side that warming may have added some needed moisture to the snowpack in hopes of consolidating that now well buried pwl (persistent weak layer)... all relative to altitude and freezing levels of course.


May add some pics later...
