Snowpack

6-10cm of new snow with deeper drifted pockets near and above treeline. Areas below treeline without a crust were almost cohesionless to the ground. In areas with a crust the new snow did not bond well to the surface. Wind slabs were cracking consistently above treeline on W - SW cross loaded terrain. See photo.
