The Chugach Range in Alaska got over a foot of fresh snow above 5,000-feet in spots yesterday.  The Wrangell Mountains got a healthy dose of snow as well this week.

Winter has officially begun in the great state of Alaska.

โ€œYesterday we found over a foot of fresh snow above 5000โ€ฒ in the Crow Pass area. Given current temps and precipitation itโ€™s probably snowing again up high. If you are tempted to check out the snow after this storm clears be sure to carry your ave gear.โ€ โ€“ Frends of the Chugach National Forest Avalanche Information Center
