Graupel layer from last week still present, new snow has settled out well. Last week a widespread MF crust formed on almost all aspects, but is hard to find in protected north facing sheltered areas. On east and southfacing slopes it is not strong enough to support much weight, and you punch through to older graupel layer making for not so user friendly turns. New snow very light density topped with small surface hoar.
