Bootleg

Sunny skies and soft snow made for great turns. Temperatures were slightly warmer than recent days, but the snow stayed dry except on steep, due-south slopes. New surface hoar was forming at lower elevations. Average snow depths were around 120 cm. There was 30 cm of soft snow over the January layers, which on south aspects consisted of two crusts with soft facets in between them. Stability tests (ECTX) showed no reactivity, and there were no signs of instability throughout the day.
