Went up to Goose Tower on Friday. Windy as hell. Snowed like crazy. I'd say there was about 2-3 feet down with more coming, but the lower layer was iced up pretty bad. It's gonna make for a good base though. The road in was pretty bad too...Four high the whole way in. By the time we left at 3:00 there was about 6 inches of fresh down. I'll post pics when I find my damn camera cord.
