Snow Characteristics Comments
Good quality powder skiing with a consolidated snowpack to stay on top. Some slopes do have wind and sun crusts underneath that are felt occasionally.
Comments
It's looking like a good stable snowpack. We dug a pit at 8500' NNE facing and saw just the slightest bit of old faceted snow at the ground that was not reactive.
Plenty of wind scoured snow on the high ridges and just below
