Melting — conditions deteriorating
It's a breezy Tuesday up here with a thin base, so expect variable conditions and limited terrain open due to current lift access. Wednesday looks like your best bet with similar temperatures and cloud, but no snow is expected all week, with the last significant fall well behind us.
