Variable describes the snow conditions best. It was a mixed bag of near surface facets on top of a basal melt freeze crust with a variable (0-2" thick) wind crust on the surface and at lower elevations and an average snow depth of around 1ft increasing in both depth and variability as elevations increases. At higher elevations (up to about 8400ft) snow depth increased to 2-4' and consisted of the healing basal facet layer with variable 1-2' slab on top. Seemed like the wind had blown things around in this zone quite a bit and made surface conditions extremely variable. In some locations I was wishing I had my ski crampons and others were 4-6" of low density powder (from Saturday) on a supportable crust. Tough day for uphill travel and skiing for sure. Surface hoar noted on most aspects and elevations in the AM.
