Above 11k S was powdery and depths were 100-150cm On N-E at 11-12k top 20-30 cm had stiffened into a 1-4f windslabs that had bonded quite well in hasty pits. Depths at 10500 in run-outs and valley floor were 150+ and 180-220 higher on slopes. Didn't dig a pit but probing felt like some weaker snow on the ground.
