Snowpack Summary

30 cm of storm snow with more on the way overlies a thick rain crust now buried 40 to 50 cm deep, which seems well-bonded at lower elevations but may need more time to bond in the alpine.

Crusts and facets in the mid and lower snowpack can still be found in isolated pockets.

Confidence

Moderate
