The only weak snow surface was the mix of facets and graupel on the high elevation, steeper northerly facing slopes that are really shady. With a low power hand lens, it looked like some of the graupel had facets growing on it, too. But the basic "loose, sugary, sparkly" attribute means you don't need a hand lens to know it is weak and faceted snow. If we get the higher end of the forecast 1 to 4" of snow this weekend, I'd expect it will be possible to trigger some descent size sluffs on these slopes.

Yes, there is snow...at the upper elevations, especially on north through easterly facings slopes.
