Bruins Glacier/8812

Went up Bruins Ridge, skied Bruins Glacier, then down 8812 to ski out. 15-20cm of cruisey powder on the glacier. Probed 250-300cm on upper glacier, bottom moraines and toe of glacier 170-200cm. From approximately 2350-2500m there's a 2-5mm breakable crust forming on the surface. Suspect rain crust with rime and some wind affect. More wind affect closer to Bruins Pass at 2500m. Periodic freezing rain to 2500m. 8812 resort had plenty of tracks wall to wall from previous days when we first dropped in to the glacier. By end of today, counted about 20+ people that dropped in to 8812. Ski quality where not pummeled felt like heavier powder with a slight crust forming. Old tracks are crusting over and felt compact.

Periodic freezing rain to 2500m, below 0 temps, light to moderate NE winds in alpine, broken cloud coverage, clouds occasionally down to 2350-2400m on the 8812 side.
