<p>Rain crust extends up to about 1500m and it's largely breakable with ~30-40cms of new snow underneath it.
Unfortunately, above that, everything was wrecked by wind. The entire stadium was rock solid wind crust -- better skiing than below since it's not breakable, but not great. Probing suggested 40-60cms of new snow in the alpine under the wind crust and above the older mfcr, and at higher elevations the mfcr actually felt quite thin.
Surprisingly little natural activity during the cycle. Biggest slide was a wet 2.5 in Exit; the debris had some new snow on it, so I think it ran during the storm cycle, maybe on Friday.
Otherwise, a number of small surface slabs (up to 1.5, maybe 15cms deep) ran on steep north facing stuff in the bigger terrain on Sky Pilot and in the next drainage south. Nothing's moving now though...</p>
