Visitors:
It was me, I'm the visitor.

Weather:
Another day of not counting, as if there would have been much anyway. I went to the summit in the morning to clear snow and some minor debris which had fallen across the Summit Trail. The trail was and now likey is very sloppy. Snow was over a foot deep at the top in some areas. The park, along with its surrounding towns sustained a lot of tree damage. Branches were still crashing down this am. Winds were calm but visibility was limited and drizzle continued to fall throughout the day.

Raptor Observations:


Non-raptor Observations:
I didn't hear or see any signs of life while at the park.

Predictions:
Tomorrow looks like more of the same, with some am snow showers and pm drizzle. Precip' potentially is around 50% from what I am viewing so hopefully we can find some dry spots on the radar. The wind will be challenging as it blows in hard from the N with strong gusts. Temps should be around 40. We shall see how it all plays out. Yours truly, Zane
