report on last weeks new snow

Mountain Conditions Report

<p>On a short heli glacier hike with 4 clients. Just wanted to see HN of past few weeks. Total snow cover on ice amounts to 1m at 2242 m. 25cm of HST (from a few days ago) on top of 20 cm deposited about 2 weeks ago on top of older snow. FP about 30cm.<br /> Snowpack was fairly moist below the top few cm, so this bottom layer should bond quite well for whatever is to come next.<br /> Crevasses are very open on all the surrounding glaciers, access to ridge lines barely possible due to huge Bergschrunds everywhere.</p>
