March 15 [No observation] The Piitaistakis Ridge was visible for the first hour but by 0845 everything was obscured. It snowed all day with 1.5cm of fresh snow on the ground at the beginning and 4cm more by 1500. By 1600 the snow was heavy and wet and I left.
Mount Lorette (Bill Wilson) The temperature briefly reached 4.5C at 1400 from a low of -2C with ridge winds S-SW moderate to strong decreasing to moderate in the afternoon. Cloud cover was 90-100% stratocumulus and cumulus with light snow to 1430, then low stratus and snow after. The Fisher Range was partially obscured to 1400 after which it was completely obscured. Only 3 migrants made it through: an adult Golden Eagle flying north with and occasionally interacting with a large falcon at 1026, and an adult Bald Eagle at 1336. The lynx appeared on a gravel bar in the river at 0850. 9.5 hours (135.4) BAEA 1 (11), GOEA 1 (125), UE 1 (1) TOTAL 3 (146)
