Found up to 2 feet of new snow on NE to N aspects above 8,800 feet.  The snowpack consisted mostly of weak snow, crusts and SH (see pit profile).  I didn't pick it up in the pit, but there was a large, solid (Pencil to Knife hard) lens of snow in the middle of the cirque, up to 8-10" thick in places.  There's a fair amount of dirt and other organic debris in this layer too.  It sounds like other areas lack this solid wind crust, but are very rotten.  Bottom Line is this snowpack around Snowbasin seems to be quite variable with a mix of crusts and very weak snow.
