Snow Characteristics Comments
Mostly weak, soft snow to the ground on all aspects/elevations with some variable and breakable crusts. The top layers were variable with 1" breakable crust (about 2" under the surface snow) and a wind skin on the surface. In spots where both the crust and wind skin existed (video from east aspect) they were poorly bonded. Any Wind drifted snow we found was soft.
