Weather
Cold and Clear. Very light winds below treeline. Signs of blowing snow at ridgeline.
Snowpack
HS 40-80cms. While skinning below treeline snowpack had little slab quality. A quick 80cm test + pit at 11,400 showed little density change within the snowpack. Most notable layers were between 50-10cm where a 4 finger slab sit above depth hoar and facets. This layer was not reactive to ECT tests. Snowpack in general is faceting with the cold temps that are hanging around the North San Juan Mountains.
