Snowpack Summary

Not much is changing out there right now.  Expect to encounter a temperature crust above 2200m on solar aspects.  You may find it in some areas lower than this but the cooler temps seem to have limited its development at the lower elevations.  In the Alpine, Its a mixed bag of windslabs, powder snow, and bare ground.  Surface hoar is still continuing to grow in the lower elevations (TL and below) and the snowpack is losing strength in thinner areas as it continues to facet.
