<p>The crust on top was stout and brittle enough that it was either supportive or occasionally breakable just at skis, but with no cracking or collapsing noted. </p>

Snowpack

Snow surface was a stout 8cm crust with radiation recrystalization crystals on top (RR melting quickly once hit by the sun, crust surface softening quickly as well). Crust was mostly supportable but would break thru occasionally.
