Coverage was good but as usual...there are still rocks and branches so I have a few divots to repair. You might want to check out conditions a bit more....I got an email this morning from a buddy on a local mountaineering message board that said the following....

I was up at Baldy today. All that new snow has now frozen into one big popsicle, albeit a deeper, more complete popsicle than it was before. Absolute boilerpalte (can barely see your tracks). In the afternoon the graupel started up, with winds pushing it horizontal. If the next big snow doesn't start warm, that crust is going to be one hell of a weak layer. There was only about (an average of) an inch or two of graupel down when I left at 4:30, but it was windloading in places, and I would guess that there might be 6 or 7 inches in places by tomorrow morning.
