<p>Dug a pit at 9000ft. on NE slope. 185cm (84in) of total snow and the PLW is down 95cm (43in). I got no activity in this pit at the PWL, but the facets are still there. </p>

4- 5 inches last night and today up at Steammill. The rain line from yesterday is at around 7K. Turning nice on the sheltered north slopes down to 7k were the rain crust is variable with regards to being supportable or not.
