Quick report

Did see any signs of instability while touring. It seems like we have about 70cm of new snow, maybe 40cm over the past 24/48hrs. We experienced partly sunny sky's with low winds and scattered snow flurries. New snow seems to be right-side up

Snowpack

Snow pack seems to be settling and adjusting to the new load. We dug a pit @ 6k and found a large storm slab sitting on top of three other slabs separated by a rain crust and some facets. We got an ECTN1 @90cm, an ECTN15 @ 55cm and a ECTP18 @ 44cm. Very reactive snow pack. But on the bright side the deep facets seem to be healing!
