A miserable, blustery day throughout which we experienced rain, hail, snow, and fog. The ridges were nearly constantly totally obscured. With the poor conditions set to continue throughout the day, we returned to the comfort of our car and watched for a further 2 hours to see if conditions would change. When they didn't, we called it a day, though we did drive by the site again 2.5 hours later to no avail.
