Snowpack

Snowpack depths were around 80-95cm in most areas we probed. About 15cm of snow has fallen near Cottonwood pass over the last several days. We continue to see propagation on weak faceted snow near the ground in stability tests. The snowpack consisted entirely of faceted snow but the mid-pack still holds a 1F or 4F-hard slab. The snowpack is unsupportable on a sled or foot and you can penetrate all the way to the ground.
