Quick report

Wanted to look around the compass today at all for aspects. Surprisingly consistent ECT scores on W, N, and E

Below is West facing, ECTP12

North Facing below, ECTP12

East facing below, ECTP13

South facing slopes were pretty cooked with about a foot of snow. I was surprised to find a thin layer of small facets on a south east facing slope. Photo below

Instability Comment
<p>Found the old, faceted snow on west, north, and east. Even found a very thin layer of facets on SE but it shouldn't be a problem except in some extreme circumstance.</p>

Pretty nice powder on North and East. The dense snow has settled nicely. Even though thin, it is quite supportable (not supportable on foot though)

Widespread surface hoar but it probably wont survive increased winds as the storm approaches tonight.
