Back to Habeggar's

 Habeggar's glades are a great, relatively safe spot to assess the effect of recent storms on the snowpack.

This area got about 4" of new snow and whole ton of wind yesterday, so I was eager to get up there and see what happened.

I met my friend Anne and new friends Paula & Wayne and we headed up. It's still pretty thin on the way up to the glades.

The snow had stripped SW facing slopes and deposited new snow on NE slopes, so overall conditions improved a bit in the glades although there was a little wind affected snow here and there.

The snow quality improved further into the glades where the snow was better protected.


Great to be out on the skis again!
