Last weekend's new snow, unskied and unaffected by wind, has faceted somewhat in at and below treeline on N and NW aspects. 6 to 10 inches of rounded facets and uncohesive snow exist in some places. This suspected diurnal recrystalization near-surface faceting is likely the result of cool, clear nights and warm days. It made for decent skiing, though it's a little noisy and sugary. We observed no significant collapsing, and just a little sloughing in steep areas on the outside of a ski turn. This layer is to be watched when new snow accumulates.
