Snow Characteristics Comments
We found decent soft facet or "loud powder" in sheltered north-facing terrain, but the snow in most places is crusty and inconsistent.
Comments
NSF (near surface faceting) is widespread at all elevations, and we found several areas with SH (surface hoar) in and around avalanche start zones. Sunny slopes sport surface crusts and dampness, but very loose sugary facets lurk just beneath.
