Snowmobiling

The Bozeman Snow Ranger crew rode Buck Ridge today as far as Slatt's Hill/ 2nd Yellowmule.  At the bottom of the trail there was about 3" of new, low density snow, while up on top there was at least 6-10" of new snow from the last 24 hours or so.  There was no wind effect yet and there looked to be another wave of snow moving in from the SW as we were leaving.  We peeked into Beaver Creek and the Slatts area and did not see any recent avalanches though I did notice the snow settling significantly as I rode around on the flats in the Slatt's hill area- the SE facing basin opposite 2nd Yellowmule.   Plenty of fun to be had in the flats and gentle meadows right now.
