Sawatch

Snowpack

0.5 - 1.5 meters of snow moving from west to NW aspect. Western snowpack was bottomless - trapdoor skiing with significant basal faceting. NW aspects were deeper and more supportable mid-pack, ~30 ski penetration while skinning. Significant, wide whoomping throughout the zone (though more so in the NW, less on W aspect), with new whoomphing occurring along the same skin track after several laps. No cracking observed.
