Snowpack Summary
Snowpack structure varies greatly with aspect, elevation and time of day. We received 2-5 mm of precipitation over the weekend with a 1600m freezing level. New snow sits over a 4cm melt freeze crust on solar aspects above 1700m. Pockets of dry snow over windslab still exist on north aspects above TL. Midpack is strong above 1700m & Isothermic BTL.
Avalanche Summary
No new avalanche activity last 48h. A widespread, loose wet avalanche cycle during last weeks tropical heat has filled many avalanche paths with debris.
