This snowshoe tour was postponed a day to April 9, but the bluebird day on Vista Butte was worth the one day wait.  Conditions were optimal for a soft snow hike up to the top for the 360 panoramic views.  Plenty of snow to the top so good coverage for the next couple of weeks. 

We probed the snow depth at the top at 1.9 meters and stopped in the meadow on the way down and our probe never bottomed out at its full length of 2.8 meters. Conditions softened on the way down as temperatures reached near 60 at the SnoPark. We will try this hike again next year!
