Quick report
I did a lazy mans snow pit today. I only looked at the top meter. There was 3"of new snow and facets on the surface and still triggering a weak layer 40cm deep that persists with buried near surface facets.

- <p>I observed some tranport today and with a boot pen of 30cm and light near surface facets and stellars there is plenty of snow available for transport. However if found the wind slabs are likely to be small.</p>
Polar aspects are still skiing oh so good. The near surface facets and couple of inches of fresh keep surprising me with stellar riding conditions.
