Snowpack

Above 10,000'ish the surface of the snow was quite variable depending on the exposure to the wind. We found beautiful blower pow, lightly buried debris, upside down wind junk all the way to hard wind crusts. We saw some cracking, big cornices, and set off a 10 foot wide ~6 inch deep wind slab that slide for all of 6 or 8 feet. (East 10,100').
