<p>Large amount of wind slab on the ridges, but not reactive today</p> <p>sluffing in the new snow on the steeper slopes still evident today. See photo. A layer of grauple was found at 14 inches down from the surface in the protected trees but was not reactive on ECT. </p>

new snow settled to about 8 inches sitting on wind blown surface. Still dry on most aspects. Nice turning in the trees and better at lower elevations.
