Lots of fresh snow from the last storm, making riding anything too flat impossible. Ski penetration varied from 50cm to 80cm.

Snowpack

Compression test performed with results as follows We got a sudden collapse on 3rd light tap 25cm down on 2cm layer of 3-4mm stellar crystals within the storm snow. We then got a SP result on 22 CTH. This was on a faceted layer below a 4cm breakable crust at 60cm down.
