Quick Observation
We observed quite a few areas whoomph and large fractures of approx 20-30 feet but nothing moved more that a couple inches
Weather
It has warmed up a lot over the last couple days making the top layers much heavier.
Snowpack
bottom 15-30 cm is facets however we did not see much reactivity from this layer. we observed a lot of reactivity from the crust/ hoar layer about 30cm from the top. The depth hoar was sensitive however the slab on top did not want to move much once settled. I'm sure this would have been a lot more of a concern if we were on steeper slopes
