Snowpack

-CTE6 and ECTN7 down 21 cm (unconsolidated storm snow on wind slab, I think) -CTH26 and ECTP26 down 63 cm (facets under Nov. 8 crust, I think) Snowpack at the test location consisted of loose storm snow above layered wind slab (on top of and below the Nov. 8 crust). The Oct. crust was present, but mostly facets. The entire snowpack shows evidence of faceting, and 3mm DH was present at the base. The Dec. 3 layer was generally not present in south-facing BTL locations, and the powder was bottomless. Soft wind slabs were beginning to form on E/NE slopes by early evening.
