It rained at lower elevations making for a potential rain crust surface. This new snow rests on either a decomposed surface hoar layer that has formed the last few weeks or a facetted unconsolidated snowpack.

Saturday natural activity noted up to size 3 running relatively far on a variety of aspects mainly in alpine.
