Vermillion crossing

<p>2-10cm MFcr up to ~1550m decreasing with elevation. Facets below the crust to the ground until 1600m where a bit of a mid pack started to form. Snow improved with elevation, did a quick pit at 1950m in an open patch NE aspect. See snowpack tab for details. Skiing was great, ~20cm of F on a supportive midpack with good coverage of all the logs and stumps. Skiing drastically decreased once you hit the semi brakeable crust and quickly turned into survival skiing. Top 5cm were moist by 2:30 at 1400m. </p>
