- <p>It seems like about 2' fell from about Thursday to Saturday with wind from a few different directions. Wind easily filled back in skin tracks and made snow more dense than normal over the past couple days. Crossloading noted on Saturday through sub-canyons. Today's snow plus multiple different loading directions created sort of a complex snowpack that is not visually obvious. </p>

- <p>In the snowpit below, several wind slabs were noted between lower density snow. In snowpit tests, this didn't propogate but the weather has been somewhat unusual. Typically these areas are relatively wind protected.</p>
Snow for the past two days has been relatively dense due to wind affect. Today's very low density snow looked good but sort of masks activity from the prior days.
