That snow kept going through the day and into this morning. We even had a bit of a whiteout in the afternoon - a blizzard in April!
For those of you still around, the snow is cohesive and a bit heavy, so it will definitely be sliding on the harder snow below if you're out there in the backcountry. Slow and easy to keep under control, but watch who is below, and where you're standing below your buddies!
