Snowpack

Very thin - feels like October.  Surface hoar on the north half of the compass, with some areas holding 3-5mm grains, others 1-2mm grains.  Last week's storm snow is faceting and losing cohesion now N/BTL. Although we didn't travel anywhere with significant previous wind drifting, we didn't find any terrain features holding slabby snow. We found only soft and faceting snow with no cracking or collapsing.  An ECT showed non-propagating results on buried depth hoar 35 cm deep. .
