Phenomenal late snowmobiling in Little bear

BZN Snow Rangers rode little bear to check boundary signs and see where closure encroachment issues had been occurring. Boy were we pleasantly surprised to see 10 new inches up high from the previous spring storm cycles which had set up nicely with minimal traffic. Snow was wind affected on high ridgetops but not on less exposed midslopes. Temperatures were below freezing in the morning but by 1400 higher temps and direct sunlight started to cause some roller balls and pinwheeling. We observed no new avalanche activity. There was one pair on a two-seater skandic, and another group of at least two mountain sledders who seemed far above our ability and eluded us despite our best efforts to find them.
