Quick Observation

The precipitation from early in the week followed by below freezing temps has created a melt-freeze crust on the surface up to 1800m. In Window mountain bowl the SW facing slopes in the alpine was stripped bare and where there was snow it was hard and wind pressed. There were skiers on the NE aspect where there was some softer snow lower on the slope where it is more sheltered. The same story in the bowls past the sledder's shelter. The recent wind slabs seem to be bonding to the previous surfaces. There was no cracking, whumpfing and we had no test results in our test profile.
