Snowpack

Warm temps, and night time lows in the teens have really helped to settle the snowpack in the last few days. Deeper weak layers still present, but signs of reactivity have all but disappeared. Main problem is now wet slabs on solar aspects near and BTL. Slabs witnesses are in the 2 feet thick range. With cooler temps on Sunday, this hazard has abated as well.
