Comments
Roughly 6" of new snow fell overnight 1/23-1/24. Lower elevations ~7k HS60-90cm depending on tree cover. Upper elevations ~8k HS115-125 subjective to N facing or S facing facing aspects. Southern aspects were subject to Friday's sun and showed a good amount of crusty behavior. They were however stubborn to allow the new snow to slide. Slope angles of 40deg or greater produces small releases with little travel. The new snow at these elevations was very cohesive.
