Thats it…I’m calling it. It’s the dump of the season. Over 2 ft of fresh Talkeetna goods…and that’s just down low. Erin and I went in search of some wind protection and high viz. We did two laps and skied down to the car at 7:45. It was coming down easiley an inch an hour, and on lap two our skin track was filling in.
The snow is dense, but by no means concrete. Hopefully the snowpack can adjust to the new snow up high. We didn’t see any obvious instabilities like yesterday, but it could still be a different story in the high alpine. Enjoy this non-HD video clip.
Feels like snow, looks like snow. Holy Shit it’s snowing at Hatcher again!
Spring…How I love thee. Let me count the ways…6, 12…no wait 20+ inches!
Three to Five more inches forecast for tonight. So far this storm has been doing right by us and absolutely puking up high. The snow finally started sticking in Palmer around 5pm, so we’ll see what tomorrow brings. Weather is supposed to warm up, so watch out for melt freeze crusts…even though there’s wasn’t much snow before this storm, we had some pretty hard ice layers.
