I fear Wednesday’s entry on the blog will be a good  deal less sunny and inviting! Wet and mild weather in prospect, mainly overnight and early am, but staying mild throughout the day. Very poor mountain conditions expected with avalanche activity likely. All cornices expected to collapse in the meltdown as well.

      Today certainly. Tomorrow, probably not!
