Poor Snowpack Structure

Went out to see if the cornices were still sensitive and now they are very stubborn. ESE slopes at 8900' had hard slab on 4F facets but down lower at 8700' the slab was much thicker with fist facets below.. Also went up to check an area Brett K. and I looked at last week that had poor structure. NNW at 8950'. The pack did not disappoint with a 1" M/F crust with ARM FACETS BELOW.. This failed on the back cut on a hand pit. See pics below. Video shows how loose they are.
