Snowpack

Winds have blasted near and above treeline terrain. Remaining snow was mix of wind-affected surfaces, from hard (1F) to soft (F). Triggered some moderate collapsing on northeast aspects near treeline. Seemed to require somewhat hard (4F) wind-drifted layers in the upper snowpack. Snowpack depth was 40 to 60 cm.

Snow on east and southeast aspects near and below treeline was moist to the ground.
