Comments
This is by far the deepest I have ever seen surface and near surface facets!
Around foot deep of faceted loose unconsolidated snow. Unusual weather. Cold plesant weather with just a few inches of snow past 3 ish weeks lots of clear nights.
There is a wind skin that is holding down sluffing in wind exposed areas. Some sluffing around 9000' where wind protected.
I pole probed around some old slides, i was curious about in Bannana days- felt resistant/ consolidated/ not junky except around thin areas/ rocks.
