- <p>On North slopes that retain the older october snow, there is a melt freeze layer. Could only find it in the north facing shaded features. </p>
Total depth is 32 cm, The melt freeze crust was at 5 cm discolored by dirt, next layer is a light wind crust at 20 cm, the new snow is 12 cm. A very light wind crust or density change is found just below the ridge top.
The storm board showed the same depth, 25 cm. snow depth was about the same at Millers flat as at higher elevations.
The little snow we have is dense enough to get some easy turns, The snowmobiles are staying in the grass flats and roads. or you can still drive most roads.
Snowpack
The new snow is still small grained, no surface facets at this time. The snow is moderate dense loose.
