Snowpack

Facets at the ground above 11,000 ft, but were small and appeared to be rounding. There is a defined crust probably 2-5 cm this above the facets. I think everything lower got rained on and was rock hard to the ground. No collapsing but 15 cm new was cracking as breaking trail but no propagation. Acting a little slabby but didn’t gather any momentum. Height of total snow 12-16" in Marble Bowl, with drifts around 2 feet.
