Deep snow up in the backcountry around the Allison Pass region. Almost too deep today for turns on this little mountain. Easily 40+cms since precipitation began after the recent dry spell. Day started at -14 at the car, weather was mix of sun and cloud through the day, some periodic light flurries in the afternoon as well. Did hear a whumf near the summit as we made our first approach, but saw no other instability. Noticed a layer of Facets sitting beneath the new snow.
