Quick report

Cracking
widespread
Collapsing
widespread

Gusty, high easterly winds creating erratic erosion and deposition patterns. Snowpack generally upside down. Some windward areas were scoured down to old surfaces. Slabs generally lacked slope scale continuity where I traveled but Ill bet it exists in more well defined terrain features or terrain subject to top loading from easterly winds. No obs below the new snow. Almost all deposition zones cracked and/or collapsed at the new old interface. Generally mod-high friction after failure. Slab depths to 60cm.
