Vail & Summit County

Snowpack

66 cm of snow total. From the bottom up - 26 cm of fist highly developed facets/depth hoar, 26-31 cm is a finger layer (persistent slab), from 31 to 50 cm 4 finger+ layer, and 50 cm to 66 cm fist. Did not observe faceting of top half of snowpack, but riding into areas untouched this season our tracks were easily dropping down to the bottom of the snowpack (40-60 cm deep). Both compression tests broke at 10 cm from the bottom. CT 14 @ 10cm sudden collapse.
