Posted at 9:06am on Monday 14th January 2013 This is an archived report. The latest Myoko Now report can be found here.
The snow is back today; about 10 cm so far, and it looks steady if not particularly Myoko-heavy yet. Good timing, too; we needed a reset on powder!
Last day of a three-day weekend means it might be a bit crowded in the morning, but people usually start leaving mid-day or so.
In the backcountry, as I mentioned earlier, the recent sun and warm weather could create some weak layers in the snow--keep an eye on the snowpack as you head out.
