1. Lots of wind damage.

2. Small wind slab cracking.

Lots of snow tomorrow? I hope so. High precip rates are forecasted. I am very interested in what will happen with our old rain crust if it will finally come alive.

<p>They were forming on lee side of ridges today north- southeast.</p> <p>From what I saw today the snow was very reactive on the 12/17 rain crust. The new years storm is starting to bond but still has a long way to go. The conditions today reminded me a lot of march of 2015 when I triggered a slide in burch on a stout crust and we had a fatality in hells.</p>

Most of our Christmas and new years storms have blown away.  In burch you still struggle getting an egde on the rain crust in places.
