4-8" new depending on elevation. 1.5" of slop on the car at Solitude after walking all day.

Graupel, rimed stellers, pellets, needles, total mixed bag. Damp to 9500'. Wet below 9000'.

The 4" on the ski in this am was already almost impossible to isolate on north aspects, columns and EC's broke in the drier recystalized old snow surface. Didn't change during the day as snow accumulated. Columns were also difficult to isolate on south and SW aspects, generally breaking above crusts on a density inversion.

Drifting to 2' deep on and near the PC ridgeline. Some soft cracking in these areas, I imagine with time these areas will start to form shooting cracks, my guess is that slabs were not stiff enough yet,

North aspects were inverted with 6-8" of new heavy snow over the old low density surface. I did not find any indications of preserved surface hoar. I was able to isolate 1 ECT - ECTP 1, Q2 @ base of new snow 15 degree slope. All other columns failed on isolation. By the end of the day I was observing a lot of soft cracking while breaking trail and skiing, all in the new snow only. Drifts were getting thick and sensitive on the ridge below willow knob, not set up enough for shooting cracks yet.
