The warm days have produced icy conditions in many areas, and some wet/spring snow on the sunward slopes. The winds following the fresh snow have blown off many of the higher ridges and faces (a rain following fresh snow freezes the lower layers, and protects the snow pack from wind. We haven't had that). Advanced slopes are getting a bit treacherours, while the groomed slopes are still pretty good. It's a good time to prac -tice your mogul skiing (there are LOTS), and plenty of icy moguls. New snow is expected in the next 48 hours.
