Snowpack

We observed no signs of instability in our travels. We observed some cohesion in yesterday's storm snow, but saw no evidence of a reactive slab in this new snow. Probing on asoutheast aspect above treeline we found snow depths ranging from 30cm to 140cm in drifted areas. Average depth on this aspect was around 100cm. See attached snowpit profile for detail on observed structure.
