Snowpack

There is widespread corn flake sized (>1cm) surface hoar on most aspects and elevations in the Musical Bumps area, generally sitting on top of 10-20cms of faceted snow. SH is especially obvious at ridge crest (where there must have been a cloud top) and is still present on partially solar aspects. Winds were calm and temps were mild. This will be an interface to watch once we get some new snow!
