A light dusting covered the dance floor overnight with just 2″ of accumulation to greet The Faithful, who showed up in full force for the occasion. With such a short accumulation, there was not much cushion to smooth the ride. Staying with the groomers was the best bet and, with the variable visibility, staying close to the tree lines improved the details. Light snow continued all day, with some short blasts of Sun shining through from time to time.
The next low pressure is moving through Southern Utah tonight and will be pumping moisture and cold air up into The Front and perhaps the band of snow will stall over the hill and dump. This cycle is predicted to keep coming through Monday, so more is on the way. Tomorrow, look for the prepared lines to offer the smooth ride, with the off trail offering the old substrate, which will be variable and a tad crispy. As the accumulation increases the cushion should improve and the off trail lines will begin improve markedly. Keep a sharp eye out for the changes as they come up. Watch Your SIX!!
