Quick report
Went for a couple pre-work laps in Martha's this morning, finding excellent, dry snow above 4,800'. Below 4,800', a weak rain crust was observed below ~3 cm of new snow. In total, ~1.5 m of new snow has accumulated above the 21 December/Solstice Crust, with multiple layers/crusts present within this new snow. We did not observe any wind loading and overnight winds were also minimal, as evidenced by small (<1 cm) surface hoar throughout Bagley Basin this morning.

Observed multiple slides on a variety of aspects. Most start zones appeared to be in rocky/cliffy areas, though we did observe some smaller pockets that had pulled out on steep convexities.
