Snowpack
HS 140cm. 140 to 98 down was 4F to 1F hard; 98 to 93 down 1F+ hard; 93 to 84 down 1F hard; 84 to 83 down some odd crust that appeared to be P hard; 83 to 75 down F and 4F hard. Crystals from top to 93 down was Decomposing Fragments while 93 to 75 down was facets on top of a decomposing MF crust crumbling into facets and I even thought I saw a DH crystal or 2 under my loupe before I accidentally spilled the screen. Temps were as follows: TAir -10.0, TSurf -9.0, T10 -14.0, T20 -13.5, T30 -13.0, T40 -13.0, T50 -11.5, T60 -9.5 (just above the crumbling MF crust).
