This is a buried wind slab, 20-60cm down have not seen much activity on this layer but could become reactive with load. Could be more of a crust on South aspects.

Up to 25cm of new snow, with very strong winds lee slopes would have much more snow possibly up to 1m. 20-100cm overlying the Dec 8th facet crust interface.
