Surface Hoar on Judah

Skinned Judah inbounds then skied down the PCT northbound to Lake Mary and then skinned back up.

Observed widespread approx 1 cm surface hoar on the west and north aspects we skied, including on the open ridgeline. See photos. I suspect warmer temps today will knock a lot of it down, but figured it worth reporting. Strong inversion over Donner Lake, Truckee, Prosser, etc., but sunny and beautiful on the summit.

Ski conditions were surprising good with 2-4 inches of new snow plus the hoar.
