Wind now 094/8 visibility very poor as I headed for Ruby. I had some thought of not being able to land because of the snow and low clouds. Flying in snow squalls sometime heavy.  I continued on and the snow became light at 12:30 as I neared Ruby. Touched down on the beach in a light snow at 13:08 and taxied to the cabins.  I Left the supplies at the Cabin Marked for Karen and took of at 13:44 heading back to Takotna.
