<p>Provo (as well as the Wasatch back) holds some of the "poorest" structure I've seen across the Wasatch, from Ogden to the Cottonwoods to Provo. Facets are sharp, dry, and remain Fist-hard. No collapsing or cracking noted. Would've expected a 'worse' PST result. </p>

Photos:

  • natural loose sluffs westerly facing in Pika cirque

Snowpack

2-3mm surface hoar noted with snow weakening beneath these 'feathers' on due north.  Other aspects are damp/crusted.
