The understory was warm and only a little drippy, but the open meadows were socked in and wind was roaring. Scurried up and down that section. Not many out today. Balsamroot and friends just starting to open up in the lowest meadow. Feels like the snow just melted off the top. There was some snow coming down, but not likely to stick.
