After Sunday's intense wind, we were able to find good snow @ TL and BTL on N & NE aspects. Snow quality was highly variable due to the winds most of the the alpine was very wind scoured with either a wind pressed crust or sastrugi. Experienced some whumphfing and cracking on flat terrain at ridgetop. Weather was all over the place, warm and sunny and 15 min later stormy, windy and snowing. Multiple Quick hand sheer tests verified storm storm not adhering strongly to crust.
