Stable snow up Dudley Creek
While on a tour today up Dudley creek with hopes of skiing a NE gully off “dudley peak”, we encountered different weather than expected. I was expecting some dust on crust and mostly overcast, but we found no trace of new snow from the TH to the peak. Solar aspects were receiving some hot sun, but sporadic clouds managed to keep the snowpack in check for the whole day at upper elevations. I didn’t observe any rollers or wet slides during the day, but observed numerous old wet slides which made for an interesting ski down to the creek. Debris was seen in numerous E/NE slopes from 7800-8300 stacked pretty high. Overall, the freeze from last night locked up most of the snowpack. Hope this helps!
