Front Range

Snowpack

SW aspects on the way up were generally supportable due to MFcr on surface from sun/warming over the last several days. In a few shady areas, it was possible to punch through into buried facets, but this was not the norm. Snow surface was moist in places that were experiencing direct sun and protected from the wind. See attached snow pit profile for detail of the structure in the Bethel slide path (SE aspect).
