Not bad for 3 inches of new. Stevens experienced high winds out of the west which has created wind-loaded aspects filled with deep soft snow. In other areas the wind has scoured the snow down to an icy crust. It’s a mixed bag of snow conditions today but more snow on the way should make for excellent skiing into the weekend. Here are a few shots from the wind loaded slopes of Cowboy Mountain.

Chris Petry skis a deep 3 inches!
