A cooler day

19th March 2023

A day of cooler temperatures, the freezing level was around 1000 metres.  The snowpack has become quite firm at the highest altitudes, there’s a breakable crust at mid mountain and wet soft snow at lower levels.

Large patches of snow above 900 metres – enough to move around on ski.
