Snowpack
- Instability Comment
- <p>At 8800ft on a north slope there is 43 (17 inches) of snow. Poor snowpack as seen in the video. All fist density with the exception is a one inch melt/freeze crust one below the "new" snow on the surface. The surface has developed surface hoar rather quickly during the past two nights. </p>
One inch of fast faceted snow on the north slopes. Reasonable turning on the north low angle slopes.
