Near surface facets rapidly developing. 2-3mm facets well developed from the surface down 10cm. 3-5mm surface hoar on mid elevation slopes sheltered from the wind and sun.
Evidence of recent wind loading on east to northeast aspects at high elevation. It seems like these pockets are stubborn and isolated, however, I suspect with the volume of backcountry travelers out tomorrow someone will find a pocket.
Enjoy the great skiing and riding while we can, as this storm comes in, I expect conditions to rapidly change and danger to rise.
