Snowpack
HS of 120 cm with the top 5 cm of wet snow trending to moist snow. I did observe older percolation columns and ice lenses throughout the snowpack. Ice lenses were down as low as 46 cm where free water pooled and re-froze. One quick tilt test showed a sudden pop on an ice lens down 20 cm. All but the shadiest slopes I observed today BTL will have a 5-10 cm MFC on them tomorrow. Shady north and treed slopes held dry "chalky" snow.
