graupel on the snowpack surface

Snowpack

Snowpack depth 120cm. 2 faceted weak layers of concern in the midpack at 96cm & 66cm; Moderate failures with loaded column. Cohesive columns between weak layers. Basal layer mixed grains. Did not find surface hoar in this pit but it does exist in the greater geographic area.
