Report
3-4 inches of snow fell around 8400‘ on the 14th - real wet, sticky stuff on top of the dry powder from the previous week. There‘s a lot less snow visible up high than I‘d expect, but clouds never fully cleared. Photo 1 shows 13546 on the left and unranked 13151 on the right, from the 15th. Ceiling is around 13k. Just a quick update - it snowed about as much again overnight on the 15th->16th. Everything is quite snowcovered now. Photos (click for slideshow):
