Quick Observation

Decent skiing today but early season hazards still exist at lower elevations. Use caution when traveling in low snowpack areas.

Snowpack

25cm Storm snow sits on the December 9th crust. Compression Tests at 2000m yielded easy results down 15cm within storm snow. This surface storm snow has transitioned to wind slab in many locations. A well settled mid-pack is interrupted by a faceted layer which was unreactive in compression tests.
