Quick Observation
Spent the whole weekend to get about 3 minutes of nice turns. The "snowpack" started at about 1000m with 20cm, then 30cm by 1300m and 40cm by 1600m. Somewhere near 1700m the snowpack started to deepen. At treeline (1900m) we measured 100cm. Near treeline there was ~10cm light powder atop a dense powder base. No crusts were felt when probing however there was a thin suncrust on steep SW aspects just below treeline. West facing ridges were swept bare of snow with cornices building up on East, northeast and southeast faces. Overall skiing was good where snow existed, and bootpacking conditions okay where snow did not exist.
