Weather

S-1 snowfall rates, obscured to foggy, balmy ~33F at 11k with a light SW wind

Snowpack

Height of snow ranged from 55-70cm on East and northeast pit locations between 10,750ft and 11,100ft. There was not an intact enough slab to perform meaningful instability tests , but hopefully that will change soon? The primary layer of concern is a faceted MFcr found roughly 20cm down and should provide a planar bed surface for some time ahead. Both pit locations held moist grains and mixed forms to the ground.
