Not much of a snowpack yet. Blown down to 20-30 cm at spots near top of ridge. Line choice was critical to avoid rocks. Some results in our test pit, but no obvious crystals/ facets, just some variations in firmness. Major surface hoar everywhere. Test pit around 2000 m, SE aspect, approximately 65 cm snow depth.
