Quick report
Deep strong snowpack. On high north facing, some of the old powder under a soft ice crust is a little bit faceted (weak) but shouldn't really be a problem.
Photo below showing snow conditions on north facing slope at 9800'. Tonight's anticipated 4-5" of snow will go a long way to improve conditions.

- <p>New snow coming overnight will likely get blown around and make some soft slabs of wind drifted snow. None today to worry about.</p>
Pretty rugged conditions on most aspects. High north facing still has some soft snow with a soft ice crust on top that is still rideable.
