Snowpack

Recent cold temps have formed a supporting crust 20 CMS thick. this is now buried by 10 to 15cms new snow and is bonding well in all but the steepest terrain. Some recent avalanches up to Sz. 1.5 out of steep northern terrain were observed. All from the recent storm cycle. Snow depths are highly variable with good skiing in Northern aspects and shallow to almost unskiable due to snow cover on Southern.
