Wind Loading, Poor Snowpack Structure

A stunning day.... perfect for getting weather station maintenence wrapped up.

Snowpack

Instability Comment
<p> </p> <p>With recent winds, I was expecting more widespread wind loading on leeward aspects. The wind drifts I stomped on seemed pretty lifeless and not very connected.</p>

Winds have raked across a lot of our upper elevation terrain. However, to my surprise, we found excellent soft snow and quality turning conditions on sheltered shady slopes.
