Any instability was noticed consistently on NE aspects. Cracking and collapsing occurred on what seemed to be windslabs (visibility was very very poor). Dug around with my hand and felt either very low density snow or lots of facets under the windslabs. South aspects had accumulating wet needle snow on either a breakable crust, or very very firm snow. Did not seem to be bonding as well as I would have liked. Snow would get flushed down with turns, even after 3ish inches accumulating by 2 pm.
