Quick report

Cracking
isolated

Noted cracking beneath skis just below ridge lines on N slopes. SW slopes were scoured in the upper 25-50m of the hillside. Noticed (and heard) a 3-4cm sun crust on SW slopes covered by upwards of 5+ cms of fresh, light snow. NE slopes showed evidence of crossloading near ridge lines. The snow started around 9am and didn’t let up all day. S-1 was observed between 1-3 pm. Noted cracking on north slopes just below the ridge where the wind had worked its magic overnight and throughout the day.
