Austin pass

Lots of new snow. Top 30 cm very dense (overnight snow?) over lighter powder beneath. Density likely due to wind and warming. At least 1 m of snow above a thin rain crust from last week. We jumped on some test rolls but couldn't get any releases. However some quick pits failed on isolation of the new snow. It was warm, windy, and stormy. Difficult skinning and skiing due to the upside down nature.
