clear and breezy. winds have decreased a bit during the day but are still blowing quite strong

Snowpack

We stayed below TL due to high winds so our snowpack was supportive snow a bit under a meter deep. 10-15cm of new snow on top of a rapidly faceting snowpack. Above TL things have been ravaged and/or loaded with our recent winds. Loading, overall, has been limited due to the lack of available snow for transport, but enough is moving around that shallow slabs are forming and will be quite triggerable for a skier.
