Comments
Great Skiing on most slopes. Well developed surface hoar, wind skin, NSF combo sets up for some potentially interesting avalanche conditions if buried like this in the next storm

If you look close, you can see surface hoar above and NSF below the old surface snow

Not a widespread issue, but great illustration of surface hoar buried intact that is attached to the thin windslab above
