Sunny, winds calm to light.

Snowpack

Wet snow and refreezing found on Southerly aspects. Shaded aspects did not experience melt/freeze. Poor structure confirmed with a hand pit and pole probes on NE shaded aspects. Strong slab above mudpack persistent weak layer seems supportive of skier weight on E aspects. No collapses or cracks experienced skiing slopes up to 35 degrees.
